higher efficiency than currently available pin-compatible with earlier 3-terminal
devices with all internal circuitry designed regulators, such as the 117 series products,

In addition, on-chip trimming adjusts the The LX8384/84A/84B Series quiescent
reference voltage tolerance to 1% maximum current flows into the load, thereby

the 0 to 125°C range for the LX8384A, with PNP regulators where up to 10% of the
