Important Considerations
Be sure to use input and output voltages within operating
ranges.
LED indicates only input status. It does not represent output
status.
To achieve maximum ratings, there must be a minimum
spacing of 0.8 in (22 mm) between the devices in free air and
a minimum free spacing of 3.15 in (80 mm) at the top and at
the bottom. (See fig. 3)
