Working Principles

The MIC5209BU is a linear voltage regulator that uses a pass transistor to regulate the output voltage. It operates by comparing the reference voltage with the feedback voltage obtained from a voltage divider connected to the output. The pass transistor adjusts its resistance to maintain a constant output voltage, compensating for changes in the input voltage and load conditions.
