„ PIN DESCRIPTIONS

NAME I/O PIN # FUNCTION

A resistor divider from this pin to the Vout pin and ground sets the
Adj (GND) I 1
output voltage. (Ground only for Fixed-Mode)

The output of the regulator. A minimum of 1uF capacitor must be

Vout O 2 connected from this pin to ground to insure stability.

The input pin of regulator. A minimum of 1uF capacitor is connected

from this pin to ground to insure that the input voltage does not
sag below the minimum dropout voltage during the load transient
Vin I 3
response. This pin must always be 1.4V higher than Vout in order
for the device to regulate properly.

Note1: See thermal regulation specifications for changes in output voltage due to heating effects. Line and load regulation are measured at a constant
junction temperature by low duty cycle pulse testing. Load regulation is measured at the output lead = 1/18” from the package.
Note2: Line and load regulation are guaranteed up to the maximum power dissipation of 15W. Power dissipation is determined by the difference between
input and output differential and the output current. Guaranteed maximum power dissipation will not be available over the full input/output range.
Note3: Quiescent current is defined as the minimum output current required in maintaining regulation. At 12V input/output differential the
device is guaranteed to regulate if the output current is greater than 10mA.
