The device regulates to the nominal output voltage when the following conditions are met:
- The input voltage is greater than the nominal output voltage plus the dropout voltage (VOUT(nom) + VDO)
- The bias voltage is greater than the nominal output voltage plus the dropout voltage (VOUT(nom) + VDO)
- The output current is less than the current limit (IOUT < ICL)
- The device junction temperature is less than the thermal shutdown temperature ( TJ < TSD(shutdown))
- The enable voltage has previously exceeded the enable rising threshold voltage and has not yet decreased to less than the enable falling threshold
