Abstract:
A method for voltage regulation includes reducing a power consumption of a voltage regulator during an IDLE phase, by disabling a feedback loop configured to regulate an internal voltage to a multiple of a reference voltage in response to the voltage regulator receiving a digital signal from a digital circuit. The internal voltage is proportional to an external voltage supplied to the digital circuit. A regulated accuracy of the external voltage is increased during a MEASUREMENT phase by enabling the feedback loop in response to the voltage regulator receiving the digital signal from the digital circuit.

Claim (Index 6):
The method of  claim 1 , wherein the MEASUREMENT phase comprises:\n enabling a bandgap reference configured to provide the reference voltage, stabilizing the feedback loop by ramping the internal voltage in response to enabling the bandgap reference, and disabling an internal Power On Reset (POR) signal in response to the internal voltage exceeding the reference voltage, and refreshing a gate voltage of a transistor supplying the external voltage to the digital circuit, by connecting a gate of the transistor to the feedback loop, after a time delay following the disabling of the internal POR signal, the time delay sufficient for the feedback loop to stabilize.
