Abstract

A voltage regulator configured to receive a supply voltage from a voltage supply and provide a regulated voltage to digital circuitry is provided. The voltage regulator comprises first circuitry configured to inhibit high frequency energy generated by the digital circuitry from transmitting into the voltage supply, second circuitry configured to inhibit low frequency energy generated by the digital circuitry from transmitting into the voltage supply, and third circuitry configured to maintain the regulated voltage at a substantially constant value in response to a current drawn by the digital circuitry.
