ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for supplying power to a load. The apparatus comprising a voltage regulator circuit and a controller coupled to the voltage regulator circuit. The controller to cause the voltage regulator circuit to maintain a first voltage for the load operating in the first mode. The controller to detect a change in the operating mode of the load and to cause the voltage regulator circuit to output a second voltage. Prior to causing the voltage regulator circuit to output a second voltage the controller may allow voltage and current to stabilize at the load at a value between the first mode and a second mode.
