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 10):
The shunt regulator of  claim 8 , wherein, based on the drive signal, the amplifier is configured to turn on the switch such that both the first and the second constant current sources charge the second internal reference voltage at the soft ramp control pin to generate the third reference voltage.
