VOLTAGE REGULATOR

Provided is a voltage regulator capable of stably generating a constant output voltage even in a high temperature environment. The voltage regulator includes: an output transistor; an output terminal connected to a drain of the output transistor and outputting an output voltage; an error amplifier circuit configured to supply a signal obtained by amplifying a difference between a divided voltage of the output voltage and a reference voltage to a gate of the output transistor; and an NMOS transistor connected between the output terminal and a reference potential and configured to turn on, when the voltage regulator reaches a predetermined temperature at which a leakage current flowing in the output transistor is absorbed, to lead the leakage current to the reference potential.
