Note 1.

Exceeding the absolute maximum rating may damage the device.

Note 2.

The device is not guaranteed to function outside its operating rating.

Note 3.

Devices are ESD sensitive. Handling precautions recommended.

Note 4.

Regulation is measured at constant junction temperature using low duty cycle pulse testing. Parts are tested for load regulation in the load

range from 0.1mA to 150mA. Changes in output voltage due to heating effects are covered by the thermal regulation specification.

Note 5.

Dropout voltage is defined as the input to output differential at which the output voltage drops 2% below its nominal value measured at 1V

differential. For outputs below 2.7V, dropout voltage is the input-to-output voltage differential with the minimum input voltage 2.7V. Minimum

input operating voltage is 2.7V.

Note 6.

Ground pin current is the regulator quiescent current. The total current drawn from the supply is the sum of the load current plus the ground

pin current.

Note 7.

The error flag is a function of the output voltage being 5% low and the detection of one of the following: overcurrent, overtemperature or

dropout. See “Applications Information” section for additional information.
