Patent attributes
The present disclosure relates to voltage regulator circuitry comprising an input for receiving a supply voltage, an output for outputting an output voltage, and control circuitry configured to receive a reference voltage. The voltage regulator circuitry is selectively operable in either a closed-loop mode in which the control circuitry receives a voltage indicative of the output voltage such that the voltage regulator circuitry regulates the output voltage based on the voltage indicative of the output voltage and the reference voltage received by the control circuitry or an open-loop mode in which the control circuitry does not receive the voltage indicative of the output voltage and the voltage regulator circuitry regulates the output voltage based on the reference voltage received by the control circuitry.
