PRODUCTION DATA
This terminal is connected to an external capacitor and provides a regulated supply to power a circuit such as a real-time clock integrated circuit, or functions requiring a well-regulated supply. Maximum current load on this pin cannot exceed IREG mA.
The REG output has protection for overcurrent, using a current limit protection circuit, and also detects and protects for excessive power dissipation due to short circuit of the external load. This pin requires a ceramic 1µF capacitor connection to VSS for improved stability, noise immunity, and ESD performance of the supply output. This capacitor must be placed close to the REG and VSS pins for connection.
