Abstract
A digital low dropout regulator (LDO) for receiving a reference voltage and generating an output voltage, the digital LDO being synchronized to a clock signal and comprising a first digital to analog converter configured to generate a first DAC code signal, the output voltage being dependent the first DAC code signal, trigger state transitions of the first DAC code signal between states, and for at least a portion of the state transitions of the first DAC code signal, trigger each subsequent state transition after more clock cycles of the clock signal than for the preceding state transition.
