Hi. If Vout is reinforced by another regulator, and Vin is allowed to fall below the Vout voltage, I expect that the reverse current blocking will cause the LDO to turn off.
Other posts have suggested that this isn't the case. Consider this situation:
TPS70633 operating from USB input with EN tied to VIN. The 3.3V output is also reinforced by another regulator. When the USB is disconnected, the load on VIN is very low, maybe <1mA.
As VIN falls from 5V to ~3.3V, the regulator goes into dropout and Vin~=Vout, connected by a FET that is ON. Small current will feed from Vout to Vin, reinforcing the input voltage and the EN signal. In this case, will the regulator detect the "reverse bias" across the Vout-Vin and turn off?
What is the reverse voltage threshold (unspecified)?
Thanks.
