Figures 6, 7 show the information for the SOT-223 package.

Figure 6 assumes a

θ

51˚C/W for 2 ounce copper and a maximum junction tem-

perature of 125˚C.

Please see AN-1028 for power enhancement techniques to

be used with the SOT-223 package.

Note: Bypass capacitors are recommended for optimum stability and

transient response, and should be located as close as possible to the

regulator.
