Assignee: MICRON TECHNOLOGY, INC.
Field: Computer technology (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC G | IPC G

Claim 22:
23. A method of operating an integrated circuit device, comprising:
connecting an output of a voltage regulator to an input of the voltage regulator through a current path in response to a voltage level of the input of the voltage regulator having a first voltage level;
maintaining the connection of the output of the voltage regulator to the input of the voltage regulator through the current path until the voltage level of the input of the voltage regulator has a second voltage level higher than the first voltage level;
isolating the output of the voltage regulator from the input of the voltage regulator through the current path after the voltage level of the input of the voltage regulator has the second voltage level; and
regulating a voltage level of the output of the voltage regulator while the output of the voltage regulator is isolated from the input of the voltage regulator through the current path.
