A system and a method are disclosed for suppressing load transients in radio frequency power amplifier switching power supplies. A power supply control circuit is provided that includes a switcher circuit and a low drop out circuit. Load transients are suppressed by generating a preload control signal that activates an active current source either in the switcher circuit or in the low drop out circuit. The active current source counteracts a decrease in the switcher operating voltage when a load transient is present. Load transients are also suppressed by generating a step control signal that activates a transistor in a feedback resistor divider network in the switcher circuit to increase the switcher operating voltage during a load transient. The preload and step control signals are reset when the load transient has ended.
