(54)	Circuit designs for induced transient immunity

(57) A circuit for protecting a voltage supply to a sensor from a transient event is provided. The circuit includes at least one buffer capacitor configured to provide output during the transient event, the output substantially equivalent to output of a regulated supply during normal operation of the sensor. A method of fabrication and a sensor are disclosed.
