Abstract
The complexity of Systems-on-Chip (SoC) designs necessitates robust linear regulator architectures to ensure stable operations and efficient power management in modern devices. In response to this demand, low-dropout (LDO) voltage regulators have emerged as a focal point for their scalability and superior performance across diverse application domains. This paper proposes an LDO linear regulator characterized by high power supply rejection ratio (PSR) and rapid transient response. The design of this LDO emphasizes low power consumption and minimal inrush current while incorporating advanced techniques to enhance PSR and stability across varying frequencies. Despite its compact footprint and low-power profile, this LDO achieves remarkable PSR across a broad spectrum of frequencies. To achieve swift transient response, the proposed design integrates variable biasing and transient boost capacitance. The variable bias structure enhances the slew rate and PSR of the LDO, contributing to its overall performance optimization. Additionally, the strategic placement and utilization of transient-boost capacitance leverage its voltage characteristics to bolster transient response without introducing additional quiescent current, thereby further enhancing circuit stability.
