Abstract
The present technology relates to a regulator circuit and a control method capable of coping with steep change in load. An output transistor provided between an input terminal and an output terminal, a differential amplifying unit that amplifies a difference between reference voltage and voltage fed back from the output transistor, a voltage feedback path, and a current feedback path are provided, in which the current feedback path includes a current source and a transistor. The transistor included in the current feedback path is formed of an NMOS, a gate is connected to an output terminal of the differential amplifying unit, a drain is connected to the current source, and a source is connected to an input terminal of the differential amplifying unit. The present technology is applicable to a regulator circuit.
