A voltage or current regulator has a power DAC and ADC in a negative feedback loop, locked to a reference voltage or current. The ADC may have one or more parallel comparators followed by one or more parallel filters. The regulator may include a multiplexer to select between filter output signals and to forward the selected signal to the power DAC. The regulator may receive power management mode control codes to modify filter behavior and/or to select between multiple parallel filters. By modifying the loop behavior, the regulator is able to swiftly change between power management modes supporting different power level and noise profiles. Regulators with a single comparator can lock the output to a single reference voltage or current. Regulators with two comparators can regulate the output to vary within a range limited by an upper and a lower reference voltage or current.
