Abstract
An improved voltage regulator is disclosed, which includes a pulse width modulator for generating a switching signal at a modulated frequency. A drive circuit is coupled to the output of the pulse width modulator, and a switching transistor is coupled to the output of the drive circuit and to an input voltage. The switching transistor generates an output voltage.
