  • Patent number: 8289009
    Abstract: An apparatus includes at least one filter configured to filter a reference voltage to generate a filtered reference voltage. The apparatus also includes an amplifier configured to amplify a difference between the filtered reference voltage and a feedback voltage to generate a drive signal. The apparatus further includes a first transistor configured to generate an output voltage based on the drive signal, where the feedback voltage is based on the output voltage. The apparatus also includes a second transistor configured to generate a first bias current for the amplifier based on the drive signal. In addition, the apparatus includes a voltage-to-current converter configured to generate a second bias current for the amplifier based on the reference voltage and the feedback voltage. The second transistor can generate higher first bias currents during higher load currents, and the voltage-to-current converter can generate higher second bias currents during faster load current variations.
