Detailed Design Procedure

For this design example, a 3.3-V rail is needed to power the application with 100-mA of load current. The device is powered off a DC/DC converter connected to a battery. A 500-mV headroom between VIN and VOUT is used to keep the device within the dropout voltage specification and to make sure the device stays in regulation under all load and temperature conditions for this design.
