Abstract
A voltage regulator may include an auxiliary power device having a first terminal coupled to a control line, a second terminal coupled to an input voltage and a third terminal coupled to an output voltage pad. The voltage regulator may also include a main power device electrically coupled in parallel with the auxiliary power device. A second terminal of the main power device may be coupled to the input voltage, and a third terminal of the main power device may be coupled to the output voltage pad. The voltage regulator may further include a switching system selectively coupling the main power device into and out of the voltage regulator.
