ABSTRACT:
To provide a voltage regulator having improved response characteristics in case of overshoot. The voltage regulator includes: a transistor (303) for detecting an overshoot at an output terminal; and a current mirror circuit connected to the transistor (303). If the transistor (303) detects the overshoot, a control transistor (16) is turned ON to discharge a voltage of the output terminal.
