ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS
(V

OUT(NOM)
+ 0.5V (whichever is greater), SHDN = IN, SS = open, SET = GND, C
OUT

= -40°C to +85°C,
unless otherwise noted.) (Note 3)
Note 1: Dropout voltage is (V
IN
- V
OUT
) when V
OUT
falls to 100mV below the value of V
OUT
measured when V
IN
= V
OUT(NOM)
+0.5V.
Since the minimum input voltage is 2.7V, this specification is only meaningful when V
OUT
≥ 2.7V.
Note 2: The output voltage is externally set using a resistive voltage-divider from OUT to SET.
Note 3: Specifications to -40°C are guaranteed by design, not production tested.
