Abstract (en)

The invention relates to a voltage regulator circuit 1 for providing a regulated output voltage. The regulator circuit 1 comprises an input pad 2, an output pad 3 and a first active device 6 for regulating the output voltage. The voltage regulator circuit is characterised in that a second active device 7 is arranged between the input pad 2 and output pad 3. The first active device 6 and the second active device 7 are connected in parallel between the input pad 2 and output pad 3. The invention accounts for voltage drops on the input line.
