Abstract: An amplifier circuit generates a control signal as a function of a difference between a reference signal and a feedback signal. The control signal is filtered by a low pass filter circuit to generate a filtered control signal. The control signal is applied to the control terminal of a first ballast transistor which sources current to an output node. The filtered control signal is applied to the control terminal of a second ballast transistor which also sources current to the output node. In response to the sourced currents, an output voltage is generated at the output node. A feedback circuit coupled to the output node generates the feedback signal.
