A circuit structure for measuring a capacitive load. The capacitive load is coupled between a first and a second nodes, and drains of a first PMOS and a first NMOS transistors are coupled to the first node, and drains of a second PMOS and a second NMOS transistors are coupled to the second node, and a pad is coupled to the second node. First, sources of the first and the second PMOS transistors and sources of the first and the second NMOS transistors are biased at a power source and a ground respectively. A non-synchronized voltage is applied to gates of the first and the second PMOS transistors and to gates of the first and the second NMOS transistors simultaneously. By grounding and floating the pad, a current flowing through the capacitive load is obtained to calculate the capacitance.

This invention relates to a voltage regulated circuit, more particularly, to a voltage regulated circuit with a well resistor divider. The present invention applies two well resistors act as the voltage regulated circuit and uses the characteristic of the well resistor in the resistance value, which is increased following the voltage that is transmitted to the well resistor to make an output voltage become a stable value. When the input voltage is an instable and over-high value, the depletion region in the well resistor will extend to absorb the over-high voltage value and make the output voltage to become a stable voltage value.
