Abstract

This paper presents a programmable low dropout regulator (LDO) with high PSRR. A programmable reference voltage required for LDO regulator has been implemented using a 5-bit digital to analog converter made of capacitive voltage divider network. The LDO regulator's PSRR performance is enhanced using a feed forward circuit. The output voltage of proposed LDO regulator has 32 discrete voltage levels in the range 1-1.2 V for load current in the range 100 μA to 5 mA. The PSRR of the proposed circuit is 89dB. The LDO regulator was designed in UMC 180nm technology. The proposed LDO regulator works with a supply voltage of 1.6 V and has a quiescent current of 23 μA. It can be used for delay matching in DPWM by changing supply voltage of delay elements.
