(1) 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.
(2) Dropout voltage is defined as the minimum input to output differential voltage at which the output drops 2% below the nominal value. For
any output voltage less than 2.5V, the minimum V
IN
operating voltage is the limiting factor.
(3) Output voltage line regulation is defined as the change in output voltage from the nominal value due to change in the voltage at the
input.
(4) Output voltage load regulation is defined as the change in output voltage from the nominal value due to change in the load current at the
output.
(5) The value of θ
JA
for the TO-263 (TS) package and TO-263 THIN (TJ) package can range from approximately 30 to 60°C/W depending
on the amount of PCB copper dedicated to heat transfer (See Application Information).
