Note 4: Temperature stability for the LM336 and LM236 family isguaranteed by design. Design limits are guaranteed (but not 100%production tested) over the in-
dicated temperature and supplyvoltageranges.These limits are not used to calculate outgoing quality levels. Stability is defined as the maximum change in V
