(1)

Absolute Maximum Ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the component may occur. Electrical specifications do not apply

when operating the device outside of its rated operating conditions.

(2)

If Military/Aerospace specified devices are required, please contact the Texas Instruments Sales Office/Distributors for availability and

specifications.

(3)

ESD testing was performed using Human Body Model, a 100 pF capacitor discharged through a 1.5 k

Ω resistor.

(4)

resistance,

trace material, and the number of layers and thermal vias. If a four layer board is used with maximum vias from the IC center to the heat

dissipating copper layers, values of

WSON package. Exceeding the maximum allowable power dissipation will cause excessive die temperature, and the regulator will go

into thermal shutdown.

(5)

If used in a dual-supply system where the regulator load is returned to a negative supply, the LP3879 output must be diode-clamped to

ground.

(6)

above the input will turn on this diode and may induce a latch-up mode which can damage the part (see Application Hints).
