A low drop-out (LDO) voltage regulator which parallels a second pass device to a first pass device, where the second pass device has in series a small resistor. The small value resistor is a substitute for bond wires or capacitors with very low equivalent series resistances (ESR). A fast feedback loop is coupled to the junction of the second pass device and the small resistor and provides, via a Miller capacitor, a feedback signal to the amplifier of the voltage regulator. The added second pass device returns circuit stability by moving the fast-loop high frequency zero node back within the bandwidth of the circuit.
