shuts down) there's still over 11V. That's enough to feed a 7808-7805 combination I would have thought. The dropout would be shared among the two regulators, no? I'd be halving the dropout voltage as far as the 7805 was concerned. Or am I missing something? Cheers, Glenn -- Glenn2

Oh well - no success. Seems to work for a while then stops. The regulator protecting itself I think. I'll try the two regs with output resistors approach next. -- Glenn2 Glenn2's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com
