Connecting LDOs in parallel
https://www.electronics-lab.com/connecting-ldos-parallel/
App note from ROHM semiconductor on combining LDOs for higher load capacity. When you want to increase the output current capacity of an LDO, or when the power dissipation of a single LDO is insufficient, you might think of connecting LDOs in parallel if you need to disperse the dissipation using two LDOs. This application […]
