Abstract

A voltage regulator circuit using precharge voltage rails is generally disclosed. For example, the voltage regulator circuit may include a first voltage regulator having a voltage output, an output capacitor coupled to the voltage output, and one or more precharge voltage circuits configured to selectively couple to the voltage output, each of the one or more precharge voltage circuits comprising a capacitor coupled between an output of a precharge voltage regulator and a reference potential.
