Abstract
A voltage supply regulator includes a first output resistor including a first terminal coupled to an output voltage of the voltage supply regulator and a second terminal; a first comparator including a first input coupled to a reference voltage, a second input coupled to the second terminal of the first output resistor, and an output coupled to a base of a first regulator transistor; a current mirror coupled to a collector of the first regulator transistor; and an slew rate detector coupled to the current mirror that includes a first terminal coupled to control electrodes of first and second transistors in the current mirror, and a detection bipolar junction transistor having a collector coupled to the control electrodes of the first and second transistors in the current mirror, and a base coupled to a second terminal of the capacitor.
