Thermal shutdown and heat sinking. Thermal protection
circuitry turns off the device should the junction temperature rise
above 135 C. This is intended only to protect the device from
failures due to excessive junction temperatures and should not
imply that high-temperature operation is permitted. Ambient
temperature is affected by air circulation and proximity to other
heat-producing components. Normal operation is resumed when
the junction temperature is reduced. Output terminals 7 and 8
are the lead frame and substrate of the pass transistor and
provide a low thermal-resistance path for heat sinking.

fault), the device output is turned off.
Overcurrent protection. The SI-3033LSA includes an
overcurrent protection circuit, which limits the output current at
start up. It thus cannot be used with
1) a constant-current load,
2) a power supply with positive and negative to a common load
3) a series power supply, or
4) a diode or resistor in series with the device ground to raise
Input voltage. Including ripple voltage and transients, the
minimum input voltage should be greater than the sum of the
output voltage and the maximum rated dropout voltage; the
maximum input voltage must be less than the absolute maximum
rated input voltage (16 V).
