ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS
Limits in standard typeface are for TJ = 25°C, and limits in boldface type apply over the full operating temperature range.
Unless otherwise specified: VIN = VO(NOM) + 1V, VBIAS = 4.5V, IL = 10 mA, CIN = 10 µF CER, COUT = 22 µF CER, CBIAS = 1
µF CER, VS/D = VBIAS. Min/Max limits are specified through testing, statistical correlation, or design.(1)

(1) If used in a dual-supply system where the regulator load is returned to a negative supply, the output pin must be diode clamped to
ground.
(2) Typical numbers represent the most likely parametric norm for 25°C operation.
(3) Output voltage line regulation is defined as the change in output voltage from nominal value resulting from a change in input voltage.
(4) Output voltage load regulation is defined as the change in output voltage from nominal value as the load current increases from no load
to full load.
(5) Dropout voltage is defined as the minimum input to output differential required to maintain the output with 2% of nominal value.
