Abstract

A voltage regulator circuit includes a power supply terminal and a ground terminal, and a differential amplifier coupled between the power supply terminal and the ground terminal. The voltage regulator circuit also includes an output transistor, which includes a gate node coupled to an output node of the differential amplifier to receive a gate voltage and to provide a regulated output voltage at an output node of the output transistor. The differential amplifier is configured to provide the gate voltage based on a differential between a reference voltage and the regulated output voltage. The voltage regulator also includes a compensation capacitance coupled between a virtual ground node in the differential amplifier and either the power supply terminal or the ground terminal and a virtual ground node in the differential amplifier.
