Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of electronic circuits, and in particular to a low voltage difference linear regulator, a ferroelectric memory and an electronic device. Background Art

[0002] In related technologies, a low-dropout regulator (LDO) is a common basic circuit module in analog circuits, used to achieve level conversion and provide a stable, low-interference power supply for other circuits.
