Abstract:
In some examples, a shunt regulator includes a plurality of selection pins configured to receive a digital signal. The shunt regulator also includes an internal reference voltage selection circuit coupled to the plurality of selection pins, the internal reference voltage selection circuit configured to select a first internal reference voltage of the shunt regulator based on the digital signal. The shunt regulator further includes a soft ramp control circuit coupled to the internal reference voltage selection circuit and to a soft ramp control pin that is configured to carry a second internal reference voltage, the soft ramp control circuit configured to compare the first and the second internal reference voltages to generate a soft ramp control output signal.

Claim (Index 21):
A shunt regulator, comprising:\n an internal reference voltage selection circuit coupled to the a plurality of the selection pins; and a soft ramp control circuit coupled to the internal reference voltage selection circuit and to a soft ramp control pin, the soft ramp control circuit comprising:\n a comparison circuit; and \n a current limited buffer, the current limited buffer coupled to the comparison circuit and to a capacitor.
