Embodiments of the invention may provide for a load regulation tuner that reduces the load regulation effect. The load regulation tuner may include a load current controlled current source that is responsive to a load current from a power transistor of a linear regulator, where the load current controlled current source includes a sensing transistor that generates a fraction of the load current as a sensed partial load current. The load regulation tuner may also include a resistor in parallel with a load current controlled current source, and where the paralleled resistor and the load current controlled current source form at least a portion of a feedback block that adjusts an operation of the linear regulator to provide a substantially constant load voltage.
