ABSTRACT:
A circuit provides a power regulation loop that operates in two modes and uses a single comparator between the two modes. One mode, an open mode, involves generating an overload signal when the pass transistor is in an oversaturated mode indicating that the voltage drop of the device exceeds a predetermined threshold. The other mode, a linear mode, involves generating an optimal value sense resistor for a liner mode operation of a pass transistor. The two modes do not exist simultaneously and, therefore, a single comparator may be used between the two modes.
