It's better to use the notification from the device if it is reliable; dead reckoning isn't going to work well either for voltage reduction since the time taken to implement a drop in voltage is more a function of the loading than anything else, the regulator can't really control it. For most DC-DC loads it'll be quick enough though. [unhandled content-type:application/pgp-signature] | |
