  • Current monitor circuit
    Patent number: 10871524
    Abstract: A current monitor circuit includes a sense resistor coupled to a direct current (DC) power supply to sense a current signal, an operational amplifier (op-amp) coupled to the sense resistor to sense a voltage developed across the sense resistor, and a low-pass filter coupled to the op-amp and an analog-to-digital converter (ADC). The low-pass filter reduces aliasing due to out-of-band signal content. The current monitor circuit is coupled to the ADC to provide real-time measurements of power supply load current as input to an active power management (APM) firmware.
