Operation: Regulator #1’s V
out
is programmed one
diode drop above 5.0 V. Its error flag becomes active
when V
in
< 5.7 V. When V
in
drops below 5.3 V, the
error flag of regulator #2 becomes active and via Q1
latches the main output “off”. When V
in
again exceeds
5.7 V, regulator #1 is back in regulation and the early
warning signal rises, unlatching regulator #2 via D3.
