(1) Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated under Recommended Operating Conditions is not implied. Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
(2) All voltages are with respect to the GND pin.
(3) Abs Max VOUT is the VIN + 0.3 V or 6 V, whichever is less.
(4) Internal thermal shutdown circuitry protects the device from permanent damage.
