(1) Typical numbers are at 25°C and represent the most likely parametric norm.
(2) Limits are 100% production tested at 25°C. Limits over the operating temperature range are specified through correlation using
Statistical Quality Control (SQC) methods. The limits are used to calculate TI's Average Outgoing Quality Level (AOQL).
(3) Output voltage line regulation is defined as the change in output voltage from the nominal value due to change in the input line voltage.
Output voltage load regulation is defined as the change in output voltage from the nominal value due to change in load current. The line
and load regulation specification contains only the typical number. However, the limits for line and load regulation are included in the
output voltage tolerance specification.
(4) Dropout voltage is defined as the minimum input to output differential voltage at which the output drops 2% below the nominal value.
Dropout voltage specification applies only to output voltages of 2.5V and above. For output voltages below 2.5V, the drop-out voltage is
nothing but the input to output differential, since the minimum input voltage is 2.5V.
(5) This specification has been tested for −40°C ≤ TJ ≤ 85°C since the temperature rise of the device is negligible under shutdown
conditions.
(6) At elevated temperatures, devices must be derated based on package thermal resistance. The devices in TO-220 package must be
derated at θjA = 50°C/W (with 0.5in2, 1oz. copper area), junction-to-ambient (with no heat sink). The devices in the DDPAK/TO-263
surface-mount package must be derated at θjA = 60°C/W (with 0.5in2, 1oz. copper area), junction-to-ambient. See Application Hints.
(7) Error Flag threshold and hysteresis are specified as percentage of regulated output voltage. See Application Hints.
