Zusammenfassung:A circuit that stabilizes an output signal of a voltage regulator includes a glitch amplifier, a pulse generator, and a transistor. The glitch amplifier amplifies glitches in the output signal and generates a glitch amplifier output signal. The pulse generator receives the glitch amplifier output signal and generates a control signal. When there is a positive glitch in the output signal and a voltage level of the glitch amplifier output signal is less than a first threshold voltage, the pulse generator deactivates the control signal, which turns off the transistor. When there is a negative glitch in the output signal and the voltage level of the glitch amplifier output signal is greater than a second threshold voltage, the pulse generator activates the control signal, which turns on the transistor and provides a compensating current surge to reduce a voltage droop in the output signal.
