(1) Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, which do not imply functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated under Recommended Operating Conditions. Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
(2) All voltages are with respect to the potential at the GND pin.
(3) If Military/Aerospace specified devices are required, contact the TI Sales Office/Distributors for availability and specifications.

(1) Minimum (MIN) and maximum (MAX) limits are ensured by design, test, or statistical analysis. Typical (TYP) numbers are not verified, but do represent the most likely norm.
(2) The target output voltage, which is labeled VOUT(nom), is the desired voltage option.
(3) An increase in the load current results in a slight decrease in the output voltage and vice versa.
(4) Specified by design. Not production tested.
(5) For VOUT > 2.5 V, increase IQ(MAX) by 2.5 µA for every 0.1 V increase in VOUT(nom); that is,
IQ(MAX) = 210 µA + ((VOUT(NOM) – 2.5) × 25) µA .
(6) Dropout voltage is the input-to-output voltage difference at which the output voltage is 100 mV below its nominal value. This specification does not apply for input voltages below 2.5 V.
