#172959 - voltage regulator design
I had an interesting project to design a voltage regulator with the following specs:
Input + 12VDC battery.
Outputs: -5VDC, +3.3VDC, +5VDC non isolated.
Total Current drawn from battery is 330mA.
Trying to simplify the design I came out with this idea:

The problem with this design is that the voltage between 3.3v and 0v is not regulated until current drawn between the 0v and -5vd is greater then the current drawn from 3.3v and 0v.
Do you know how to fix this problem or do you have other ideas?
