Abstract
Techniques that can prevent the low dropout (LDO) output voltage degradation that occurs with conventional LDO regulators, even with large LDO supply variations. An LDO regulator circuit can include another loop that is much slower than the main LDO regulator loop, concentrates the load regulation, and fixes the voltage regulation runaway problem due to the large supply variation with large frequency content. The LDO regulator circuit can include a negative feedback correction loop that corrects the LDO output by, in some examples, adding sink current to the main voltage regulation loop via a programmable current sink element.
