This document summarizes the modeling parameters and performance of a voltage regulator component. It describes the manufacturer, part number, and key electrical parameters represented in the PSpice model. Simulation results show the input-output voltage differential is within 0.1% of measured, and ripple rejection ratio is within 0.9% of measured. The output characteristic comparison shows simulation within 0.65% of measured.
