Sorry if it might not fit the topic perfectly, but seeing that you talked about the selection of Microchip LDOs too, and I'll need to choose one of the available models for a future project, I'd like to have a question: out of the 1700, 1702 and 1703, which has the lowest dropout voltage in practice? It is supposed to be the 1700, so I tend to lean towards it. How stable is it near the low end of the difference foltage at Vin (any model you have experience with), and what load can it handle? I mean, in practice (I've already read the datasheets).
