Connecting outputs in parallel does not affect internal
operation of the LP3359 and has no impact on the Electrical
Characteristics and limits previously presented. The available
diode output current, maximum diode voltage, and all other
specifications provided in the Electrical Characteristics table
apply to parallel output configurations, just as they do to the
standard 4-LED application circuit.

less than that allowed by the package. Please refer to the
Absolute Maximum Rating of the LP3359.
Input Capacitor Selection
The LP3359 is designed to run off of a fixed input voltage.
Depending on the stability and condition of this voltage rail, it
may be necessary to add a small input capacitor to help filter
out any noise that may be present on the line. In the event that
filtering is needed, surface mount multi-layer ceramic
capacitors are recommended. These capacitors are small and
inexpensive. A capacitance of 0.1µF is typically sufficient.
