FUNCTION
Adjustable (Ground only for fixed mode)
The output of the regulator. A minimum of 10uF capacitor must be
connected from this pin to ground to insure stability.
The input pin of regulator. Typically a large storage capacitor is connected
from this pin to ground to insure that the input voltage does not sag below
the minimum dropout voltage during the load transient response. This pin
must always be 1.4V higher than Vout in order for the device to regulate
properly.
