On the NUCLEO-H743ZI board the LD39050PU33R 3.3 volt LDO provides voltage but what is the Vd or Vdrop for the LD39050PU33R?
I found I can add 3.7 volt (18650 battery) to JP3 pin 3 : I can't use VBAT as it is wired to 3.3 volts.
Object, run board on battery!
Thanks...

Data Sheet says 200mV

I use this one, AP2114H-3.3TRG1, it is the same PNP type regulator, but will drive upto 1.4A ( probably only because it can remove the heat easier..)
dropout voltage under 0.2V at 400mA

I'm use to the .7 drop from years ago, after reading about the device I'm hooking to 'Supply voltage range: 3.0V~ 4.3V, Typ: 3.8V' I'm going to us a STM32L452 at 1.8 volt to control the CAT-M1 device (it's I/O is 1.8 V) with a solar powered Lipo at 3.7 volt. DigiKeys price was impressive at $399, a few more than needed... Mouser has 1 @ pricing, $0.36.
I'm waiting on a NUCLEO-L452RE-P I ordered yesterday for power testing.. The
NUCLEO-H743ZI
was using .18 amp and I expect the NUCLEO-L452RE-P to be around 10 times less or about .08 amp - without the ST-Link part the current will drop it more.
