The maximum input voltage is 16V, but it's recommended to keep it below 15V for stable operation and to prevent overheating.
To ensure stability, it's essential to use a capacitor with a capacitance value of 1μF or more, and an ESR of 1Ω or less, between the VIN pin and the GND pin.
The minimum input voltage is 2.5V, but the output voltage may not be regulated properly if the input voltage is too close to the minimum rating.
The operating temperature range is -40°C to 105°C, but the output voltage may decrease at high temperatures. It's essential to consider the temperature coefficient and thermal design when using the device in high-temperature environments.
The power dissipation can be calculated using the formula: Pd = (VIN - VOUT) x IOUT. It's essential to consider the power dissipation and thermal design to prevent overheating.
