ABSTRACT:
A circuit configuration for generating a controlled output voltage from an uncontrolled input voltage, includes an input terminal for supplying the uncontrolled input voltage, and an output terminal for pickup of the controlled output voltage. A transistor has a load current path being connected between the input terminal and the output terminal. A controlled-gain amplifier has an input terminal for receiving the controlled output voltage and has an output terminal. A capacitor couples the output terminal of the controlled-gain amplifier with a control terminal of the transistor. A current source for discharging the capacitor is controllable by the controlled-gain amplifier. A charge pump has an output terminal for an increased voltage being connected to the control terminal of the transistor, for supplying an output voltage being controllable by the controlled-gain amplifier.
