Instructions for Use

1. Circuit Connection:

   • Connect the input terminal (pin 1) to the negative supply voltage.
   • Connect the output terminal (pin 2) to the load.
   • Connect the common terminal (pin 3) to ground.

2. Capacitors:

   • Place a 0.33 μF capacitor between the input and ground to filter out high-frequency noise.
   • Place a 0.1 μF capacitor between the output and ground to stabilize the regulator.

3. Heat Dissipation:

   • Ensure adequate heat dissipation by mounting the device on a heatsink if the power dissipation exceeds 1W.
   • Calculate the power dissipation using the formula: ( P = (V_{text} - V_{text}) times I_{text} ).

4. Input Voltage:

   • The input voltage should be at least 2V higher than the output voltage to ensure proper regulation.

5. Output Current:

   • Do not exceed the maximum continuous output current of 1A to avoid damage to the device.

6. Operating Temperature:

   • Ensure that the operating temperature remains within the specified range of -40°C to 125°C to maintain reliable performance.

7. Storage Temperature:

   • Store the device in an environment where the temperature ranges from -65°C to 150°C to prevent degradation.

8. Handling:

   • Handle the device with care to avoid mechanical stress and static discharge, which can damage the internal components.

9. Testing:

   • Before connecting the device to a live circuit, test it with a known good setup to ensure it is functioning correctly.

10. Compliance:

    • Ensure that the device meets all relevant safety and regulatory standards for your application.
