Note 1: Guaranteed by design.

Note 2: Regulation is measured at constant junction temperature, using pulse testing with a low ON time.
Note 3: Current limit is measured by pulsing a short time.
Note 4: Dropout voltage is defined as the input to output differential at which the output voltage drops
100mV.
Note5: Specifications are guaranteed by Statistical Quality Controls (SQC), with no production test proved,
when operating temperature ranges from -40°C to 85°C.
