Working Principles

The MAX6394US300D1+T is a voltage regulator that operates by comparing the feedback voltage (FB) with a reference voltage. It adjusts the pass transistor's resistance to maintain a stable output voltage (VOUT) regardless of variations in the input voltage (VIN) or load conditions. The enable pin (EN) provides control over the regulator's operation, allowing for power-saving modes when the regulator is not needed.
