Instructions for Use:

1. Supply Voltage (Vcc):

   • Ensure the supply voltage is within the range of 4.5V to 5.5V to avoid damage to the device.

2. Quiescent Current (Iq):

   • The quiescent current is typically 10mA at 5V. This should be considered in power budget calculations.

3. Output Voltage (Vo):

   • The output voltage is fixed at 3.3V under no load conditions. It remains stable across different load conditions.

4. Output Current (Io):

   • The device can provide up to 200mA continuously. For higher currents, consider using a heatsink or a more powerful regulator.

5. Dropout Voltage (Vd):

   • The dropout voltage is typically 0.5V at 100mA. Ensure the input voltage is at least 0.5V higher than the output voltage to maintain regulation.

6. Line Regulation (ΔVo/ΔVi):

   • The line regulation is very good, with a typical value of 0.1% over the specified input voltage range.

7. Load Regulation (ΔVo/ΔIo):

   • The load regulation is also excellent, with a typical value of 0.1% over the specified output current range.

8. Ripple Rejection (RR):

   • The device provides good ripple rejection, typically 70dB from 10Hz to 100kHz, ensuring clean output voltage.

9. Thermal Shutdown (TSD):

   • The device will shut down if the temperature exceeds 150°C to prevent damage. Allow the device to cool down before resuming operation.

10. Short-Circuit Protection (SCP):

    • The device includes short-circuit protection to safeguard against accidental short circuits. The protection circuit will automatically reset once the fault condition is removed.

Additional Notes:

• Capacitors:
  • Use appropriate input and output capacitors to stabilize the voltage and reduce noise. Typically, a 10μF ceramic capacitor on the input and a 10μF ceramic capacitor on the output are recommended.
• PCB Layout:
  • Ensure proper PCB layout with short traces and adequate ground planes to minimize noise and improve thermal performance.
