Abstract
A method for reducing the transient response time of a voltage regulator when the load attached to it is entering or exiting a lower power consumption level by changing the bandwidth of the voltage regulator without compromising its stability, and a bandwidth regulator for implementing such a method are disclosed, wherein the bandwidth of the voltage regulator is changed based on a signal sent by a control device when it senses that the component is about to change power consumption levels.
