with LV = GND and T
A
= +25°C, unless other-
wise noted. Test results also valid for doubler mode with LV = OUT and T
A
= +25°C. All capacitor values used are those recom-
mended in Table 3, unless otherwise noted. The output resistance curves represent the resistance of the device itself, which is R
