These devices have limited built-in ESD protection. The leads should be shorted together or the device placed in conductive foam
during storage or handling to prevent electrostatic damage to the MOS gates.

Output Voltage
(1) Regulation is measured at a constant junction temperature by pulse testing with a low duty cycle. Changes in output voltage due to
heating effects must be taken into account.
