TLV70033 ground pin current?

Arnie

Hi,

Part TLV70033 - what happens to the ground pin current (or quiescent current) if the input voltage is below the rated output voltage?

Hi Arnie,

The ground current will increase significantly (typically mA range) as the part will be in dropout operation, which means the pass device will be in the linear region of operation and the error amplifier will be fully saturated.

David

Hi David,

thanks! This is what I see in the measurements as well.
