Exceeding the maximum allowable power dissipation will cause excessive die temperature, and the regulator will go into thermal shutdown. See APPLICATION
HINTS for additional information on heatsinking and thermal resistance.
Note 3: When used in dual-supply systems where the regulator load is returned to a negative supply, the output voltage must be diode-clamped to ground.
Note 4: May exceed the input supply voltage.
Note 5: Output or reference voltage temperature coefficient is defined as the worst case voltage change divided by the total temperature range.
Note 6: Output voltage load regulation is measured at constant junction temperature using low duty cycle pulse testing. Two separate tests are performed, one for
the load current range of 100 µA to 1 mA and one for the 1 mA to 500 mA range. Changes in output voltage due to heating effects are covered by the thermal
regulation specification.
Note 7: Dropout voltage is defined as the input to output differential at which the output voltage drops 100 mV below the value measured with a 1V differential. At
very low values of programmed output voltage, the input voltage minimum of 2V (2.3V over temperature) must be observed.
Note 8: Ground pin current is the regulator quiescent current. The total current drawn from the source is the sum of the ground pin current, output load current, and
current through the external resistive divider (if used).
Note 9: Dropout detection comparator threshold voltages are expressed in terms of a voltage differential measured at the Feedback terminal below the nominal
reference voltage, which is the reference voltage measured with V
the error amplifier gain which is V
Note 10: Thermal regulation is the change in output voltage at a time T after a change in power dissipation, excluding load or line regulation effects. Specifications
are for a 400 mA load pulse at V
Note 11: Connect a 0.1 µF capacitor from the output to the feedback pin.
Note 12: Vshutdown ≤ 1.1V, V
Note 13: Two separate tests are performed for reference voltage line regulation, one covering 2.5V ≤ V
≤ V
Note 14: All room temperature limits are 100% production tested. All limits at temperature extremes are guaranteed via correlation using standard Statistical
Quality Control (SQC) methods. All limits are used to calculate Average Outgoing Quality Level.
Note 15: Human Body Model, 200 pF discharged through 1.5 kΩ.
