Pin Functions

PIN TYPE DESCRIPTION
NO. NAME
1 EN I The device enable pin.
2 IN I The unregulated input voltage pin
3 GND Ground
4 OUT O The regulated output voltage pin
5 BIAS I The supply for the internal control and reference circuitry
TAB TAB The TAB is a thermal connection that is physically attached to the backside of the die, and is used as a thermal heat-sink connection. See the Application and Implementation section for details
