A circuit and method for providing a regulated output voltage is described. The circuit includes a capacitor array, a comparator and an output control module. The capacitor array receives an input voltage, first and second control signals, and generates a regulated output voltage in response. The comparator compares the regulated output voltage and a reference voltage, and generates a comparator signal in response. The output control module receives the comparator signal and the first control signal. In response, the output control module provides the second control signal to the capacitor array.

Pulse width modulated voltage regulation circuit and related methods

An analog signal processing circuit used to suppress unipolar transient effects and signal averaging. Two transistors and one capacitor are provided in series to sample and condition an input signal. An additional transistor is provided in parallel to the capacitor to provide further signal processing capabilities. The circuit can function as an analog signal average, suppressing unipolar transient effects and as a peak detector while using a conservative amount of fabrication material and can be operated with low power.
