A dynamic current sink includes the following elements. A voltage comparator compares a reference voltage with a second control signal from an LDO (Low Dropout Linear Regulator) to generate a first control signal. A first transistor selectively pulls down a voltage at a first node according to the first control signal. The inverter is coupled between the first node and a second node. An NAND gate has a first input terminal coupled to a second transistor and a third node, a second input terminal coupled to the second node, and an output terminal coupled to a fourth node. A capacitor is coupled between the fourth node and a fifth node. A resistor is coupled between the fifth node and a ground voltage. A third transistor has a control terminal coupled to the fifth node, and selectively draws a discharge current from an output node of the LDO.
