Abstract
Systems and methods as described herein may take a variety of forms. In one example, systems and methods are provided for a circuit for powering a voltage regulator. A voltage regulator circuit has an output electrically coupled to a gate of an output driver transistor, the output driver transistor having a first terminal electrically coupled to a voltage source and a second terminal electrically coupled to a first terminal of a voltage divider, the voltage divider having an second terminal electrically coupled to ground, and the voltage divider having an output of a stepped down voltage. A power control circuitry transistor has a first terminal electrically coupled to the voltage source, the power control circuitry transistor having a second terminal electrically coupled to the gate terminal of the output driver transistor, and the power control circuitry transistor having a gate terminal electrically coupled to a status voltage signal.
