Zusammenfassung:The present invention discloses a linear regulator and a control circuit therefor. The linear regulator includes: a power device coupled between an input voltage and an output voltage; a first error amplifier including a depletion NMOS differential circuit comparing a feedback signal related to the output voltage with a reference signal; a second error amplifier including a native NMOS differential circuit comparing the feedback signal with the reference signal; and a start-up circuit which enables the first error amplifier to dominate control and drive the power device when the linear regulator is at a first stage of a start-up period and enables the second error amplifier to dominate control and drive the power device when the linear regulator is at a second stage after the first stage.
