  • Patent number: 8648586
    Abstract: A circuit for sensing load current of a voltage regulator. The circuit includes a power transistor and a mirror transistor. A first transistor sizing circuit is coupled to the power transistor and is operable to control size of the power transistor based on a bias voltage of the power transistor, thereby regulating a first voltage for varying load conditions. The circuit also includes a feedback amplifier coupled to the power transistor and the mirror transistor. A transistor is coupled to the feedback amplifier and the mirror transistor. An analog to digital converter (ADC) is coupled to the transistor. A second transistor sizing circuit is coupled to the mirror transistor, the transistor, and the ADC. The second transistor sizing circuit is responsive to an output voltage to control size of the mirror transistor, thereby ensuring that accuracy of output voltage sensed by ADC is not limited by ADC's resolution.
