Power-Supply and Voltage-Sense Input. Always connect OUT to circuit output.

Feedback Input for Adjustable-Output Operation. Connect to ground for fixed-output operation.
Use a resistor divider network to adjust the output voltage. See

Setting the Output Voltage

section.

Active-High TTL/CMOS Logic-Level Shutdown Input. In shutdown mode, V

is a diode drop

below the input voltage (due to the DC path from the input voltage to the output). Connect to
ground for normal operation.
