| Zusammenfassung: | A circuit includes a voltage regulator for outputting a voltage at a regulated level, a protection circuit, and a load circuit coupled to the voltage regulator. The protection circuit includes means for preventing the voltage regulator from outputting a voltage at a level higher than the regulated level during a start-up period of the voltage regulator. |
