Abstract
In accordance with one embodiment, a voltage regulator includes a transistor having a load current path connecting an input node with an output node, wherein the input node is configured to receive an input voltage and the output node is configured to provide an output voltage. The voltage regulator further includes a main control loop coupled between the output node and a control electrode of the transistor and configured to control a voltage applied to the control electrode so that the output voltage matches a set-point. Furthermore, the voltage regulator includes a supplemental control loop that is coupled between the output node and the control electrode of the transistor and configured to detect a transient in the output voltage and to adjust the voltage applied to the control electrode in response to the detection of a transient. A corresponding method is described.
