The Micrel MIC5156, MIC5157, and MIC5158 Super LDO™Regulator Controllers offer two features that can be used tosave the pass device. The first feature is a current limitcapability (not implemented in Figure 1). Output current canbe limited at a user-defined value, but the function is not theclassic foldback scheme. While fixed-value current limitingcan reduce shorted-output power dissipation to a manageablelevel, the additional dissipation imposed by the short canstill damage the pass device. When considerable voltage isbeing dropped by the pass device the short-circuit powerdissipation becomes dramatically high.
