Abstract

See full text

The invention provides a voltage regulator with multiple output ranges. The voltage regulator includes a voltage divider that has at least a first resistor and a second resistor. The resistance ratio of the first resistor to the second resistor is 1:(X−1). The input of the regulator is connected to the first resistor, and the output is connected to the second resistor. A voltage source may provide a reference voltage Vref to a connecting point between the first resistor and the second resistor. At least one working circuit is connected to the output to provide the output voltage as Vout=Vin−X(Vin−Vref), wherein Vin is the input voltage. As another option, the at least one working circuit may be deactivated and the output may be coupled to ground.
