After a long night of tuning the new voltage reference, I finally logged a ripple of just 4.2 mV across the 5 V rail, the first time the curve is flat from end to end. The little blue LED that glows when the load is within spec feels like a quiet applause, a tiny reminder that the system now outperforms its designer's own assumptions. I double‑checked every trace on the schematic once more, re‑measured the stray capacitance, and the small adjustments still saved the board from a minor over‑voltage event that could have fried the PCB. Even though the extra calibration added an hour to the build, the peace of mind that every spike is neutralized is worth the quiet work. #StabilityFirst ⚙️
