Ah, speaking of linear regs, I've often found they can exhibit very high
RF frequency instability. All my designs now have decoupling (10nF and a
few tens of pF) *directly* at the pins of the reg. I found that having
any significant length of track between pins and the decoupling didn't
always clear it up.
