The operating principle of the voltage regulator is basedon thereference,the error amplifier,the driver and the power PNP. This stage uses an Isolated CollectorVertical PNP transistor which allowsto obtain very low dropout voltage (typ. 450mV) and low quiescent current (IQ = 20mA typically at Io = 1A). Thanks to...
