Abstract
An embodiment of the present invention comprises a series pass transistor with its emitter arranged to receive a source of DC power, its collector arranged to supply a DC load, and its base connected to the junction of a capacitor to ground and an inductor to the collector. An output capacitor from the collector to ground is alternatively included. In a second embodiment of the present invention, an operational amplifier is inserted in the base circuit to increase the effective circuit gain.
