A high power supply ripple rejection (PSRR) internally compensated low drop-out voltage regulator using an output NMOS pass device. The voltage regulator uses an inverting inter-stage variable gain amplifier to adjust its gain in response to a load current passing through the output NMOS device such that as the load current decreases, the gain increases, wherein a second pole associated with the voltage regulator is pushed above a unity gain frequency associated with the voltage regulator. The inverting inter-stage variable gain amplifier is further operational to adjust its gain in response to a load current passing through the power NMOS device such that as the load current increases, the gain decreases, wherein the unity gain bandwidth associated with the loop formed by a compensation capacitor is kept substantially constant.
