Abstract:
An apparatus includes an output transistor device configured to control an output voltage of an output node in response to a control signal and an input voltage. A current sensor is configured to sense an output current supplied from the output node. A feedback converter is configured to convert the sensed output current to a feedback signal that tracks the output voltage of the output node. The feedback converter is further configured to set a clamping threshold. A gate control circuit is configured to generate the control signal in response to the feedback signal. The gate control circuit is configured to clamp the output voltage of the output node via the control signal based on the clamping threshold.

Claim (Index 13):
The circuit of  claim 12 , wherein the gate control circuit further comprises an amplifier coupled to an amplifier transistor device, the amplifier configured to set the clamping threshold based on a reference voltage input and configured to receive the feedback signal from the divider circuit, the amplifier transistor device configured to receive an amplified output from the amplifier and is configured with a frequency response of about zero hertz, the amplifier and amplifier transistor device being configured to provide a direct current gain loop to facilitate drive of the control signal of the gate control circuit and configured to enable direct current accuracy of the control signal in response to input voltage variations.
