Apparatus and methods facilitating power regulation for an implantable device

A power regulation system for an implantable medical device, comprising:

• a processor operatively coupled to the implantable medical device;
• a non-transitory computer readable medium that stores computer executable components;
• a central processing unit (CPU) power regulator configured to provide a first current level to the processor;
• an analog power regulator configured to provide a second current level to the processor, wherein the second current level is lower that the first current level;
• and
• a regulator switch configured to enable or disable current draw from the CPU power regulator and the analog power regulator as a function of a power state of the processor.

A method comprising:

• providing, via an analog power regulator, a first current level to a processer of an implantable device in response to digital components of the processor being in an off state;
• receiving a trigger signal indicating a request to turn on digital operation of the digital components, and in response to the receiving the trigger signal:
• turning off operation of the analog power regulator;
• turning on operation of a central processing unit (CPU) power regulator;
• turning on the digital operation of the digital components;
• providing, via the CPU power regulator, a second current level to the processor, wherein the second current level is higher than the first current level;
• and
• powering the digital operation of the digital components.
