NOTES:

Note 1: Maximum positive supply voltage of 20V must be of limited duration (<100ms) and duty cycle of less than 1%. The

maximum continuous supply voltage is 16V.

temperature rise.

Note 4 Ground pin current is the regulator quiescent current. The total current drawn from the source is the sum of the load current

plus the ground pin current.

Note 5: Output voltage temperature coefficient is defined as the worst case voltage change divided by the total temperature range.

Note 6: Thermal regulation is defined as the change in output voltage at time T after a change in power dissipation is applied,

Note 8: Comparator threshold is expressed in terms of a voltage differential at the Adjust terminal below the nominal reference

voltage measured 6V input. To express these thresholds in terms of output voltage change, multiply the error amplifier gain =
