Abstract
According to one embodiment, a regulator is provided which comprises a reference voltage generating circuit that generates a reference voltage, a first voltage dividing circuit that divides a regulator output in voltage, an error amplifier that compares a first divided voltage obtained by dividing the regulator output and the reference voltage, and an output transistor that generates the regulator output based on the output of the error amplifier. The reference voltage generating circuit comprises a diode-connected first transistor. The reference voltage is generated based on a diode voltage generated by the first transistor.
