what is droop?..

The rate of change of the output voltage when the control
signal is in the hold state.
The droop rate is due to leakage currents flowing on or off
the hold capacitor and therefore the droop rate is less for
large capacitors.

dVH/dt = Ileakage/CH

VH: Hold voltage
t: time
I: current
C: capacitor
