LND 5201
The* denotes the specifications which apply over the full temperature range.
Note 1: Unless otherwise specified Vout=Vsense. For LND5201 (adj.) Vadj=0V
Note 2: For the adjustable device the minimum load current is the minimum current required to maintain regulation.
Normally the current in the resistor divider used to set the output voltage is selected to meet the minimum load current
requirement.
Note 3: The control pin current is the drive current required for the output transistor. This current will track output with
a ratio of about 1:100.
Note 4: The dropout voltage for the LND5201 is caused by either minimum control voltage or minimum power voltage.
The specifications represent the minimum input/output voltage required to maintain 1% regulation.
