Load Regulation

Dropout Voltage
no longer maintains regulation against further reductions in
input voltage. Measured when the output drops 2% below its
nominal. The junction temperature, load current, and
minimum input supply requirements affect the dropout level.
Output Noise Voltage

etc. It is actually the difference between the input current
(measured through the LDO input pin) and the output load
current. If the regulator has an input pin that reduces its
internal bias and shuts off the output (enable/disable
function), this term is called the standby current (I

Higher capacitance and lower ESR will improve the overall

output capacitor. The minimum output decoupling value is
1.0 mF and can be augmented to fulfill stringent load
transient requirements. The regulator works with ceramic
chip capacitors as well as tantalum devices. Larger values
improve noise rejection and load regulation transient

Line Regulation
The measurement is made under conditions of low
dissipation or by using pulse techniques such that the
average junction temperature is not significantly affected.
Line Transient Response
response when the input voltage is excited with a given
slope.
Load Transient Response
response when the output current is excited with a given
slope between no−load and full−load conditions.
Thermal Protection
the integrated circuit in the event that the maximum junction
temperature is exceeded. When activated at typically 175°C,
the regulator turns off. This feature is provided to prevent
failures from accidental overheating.

V output, there is no resistor divider. If the part is enabled
under no−load conditions, leakage current through the pass
transistor at junction temperatures above 85°C can approach
several microamperes, especially as junction temperature
approaches 150°C. If this leakage current is not directed into
a load, the output voltage will rise up to a level
approximately 20 mV above nominal.
