Instructions for Use:

1. Power Supply Connection:

   • Connect the input voltage (VIN) to the IN pin.
   • Ensure the input voltage is within the specified range (4.5V to 36V).

2. Output Connection:

   • Connect the load to the OUT pin.
   • The output voltage is fixed at 2.5V.

3. Ground Connection:

   • Connect the GND pin to the system ground.

4. Capacitor Requirements:

   • Place a 1μF ceramic capacitor close to the IN pin to ensure stability.
   • A 1μF ceramic capacitor should also be placed close to the OUT pin for load regulation.

5. Thermal Considerations:

   • Ensure adequate heat dissipation if operating at high currents or in high ambient temperatures.
   • The device can operate up to 85°C, but performance may degrade at higher temperatures.

6. Short-Circuit Protection:

   • The device has built-in short-circuit protection, limiting the output current to approximately 300mA.

7. Storage:

   • Store the device in a dry environment with temperatures between -65°C and 150°C.

8. Handling:

   • Handle the device with care to avoid damage to the pins and internal components.
   • Follow ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) precautions to prevent damage from static electricity.
