I'm using a MAX1044 voltage converter to generate -5vdc from +5vdc.  The
datasheet says to use a large low ESR cap on the output to reduce
ripple.  I couldn't find any reference in Horwitz and Hill to ESR and
examination of the cap specs in the digikey catalog only had 1 mention
of the term - for a electrolytic cap that is far too large for my
application.  Any suggestions on what a low ESR cap might be.

TIA
