Special Features:

5v, 3v, and 3.3v versions available; high accuracy output voltage; guaranteed 100ma output current; extremly tight load and line regulation; low dropout voltage; extremly low quiescent current; very low temperature coefficient; use as regulator or refernece; needs capacitance for stability; current and thermal limiting; stable with low-esr output capacitors

Properties:

A microcircuit whose output is a function of the input; that is, the output varies in a predetermined and essentially predictable manner from the input signal.
