The Enable Input. An active HIGH input, turning ON the LDO. This input should be tied to
V_IN if the LDO is not intended to be shut off during normal operation. A pull−down 2.5 MW
resistor maintains the circuit in the OFF state if the pin is left open.

3, PAD
GND
Power Supply Ground; Device Substrate. The center pad is internally connected to Ground
and as such can cause short circuits to signal traces running beneath the IC. This pad is
intended for heat sinking the IC to the PCB and is typically connected to the PCB ground
plane.

BYP
Bypass input. Placing a capacitor of 100 pF to 470 pF between BYP and ground reduces
noise on V_OUT. This capacitor is optional.

V_OUT
Regulated Output Voltage. A protection block eliminates any current flow from output to
input if V_OUT > V_IN. Connect both pins for specified dropout performance.

ADJ
Output Voltage Adjust Input. This input ties to the common point of a resistor divider which
determines the regulator’s output voltage. See Applications section for details on selecting
resistor values.

V_IN
Positive Power Supply Input. Supplies power for V_OUT as well as the regulator’s internal
circuitry. Connect both pins for specified dropout performance.
