Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings: are those values beyond which the safety of the device cannot be guaranteed. The device
should not be operated at these limits. The parametric values defined in the Electrical Characteristics tables are not guaranteed
at the absolute maximum ratings. The "Recommended Operating Conditions" table will define the conditions for actual device
operation.

Note 2: Load and line regulation are specified at constant junction temperature. Change in VD due to heating effects must be
taken into account separately. Pulse testing with low duty is used. (PMAX = 20W)

• Ci is required when regulator is located an appreciable distance from power supply filter.
Co is not needed for stability, however, it does improve transient response.
Since IADJ is controlled to less than 100μA, the error associated with this term is negligible in most applications.
