anywhere from a few to several hundred milliseconds. It is almost entirely determined
by the size of the main reservoir capacitor, since this provides the only source of power
when the input is removed. A linear regulator can be considered as a constant-current
sink discharging this capacitor and therefore it is easy to calculate the hold-up time for
a given load and input voltage. A switch-mode regulator draws more current as its input
voltage drops, so accurately determining hold-up time for this type requires the solution
of a current-time integral. The higher the operating voltage, the easier it is to obtain ...
