Abstract
Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide methods and apparatus for current sensing and error correction, or at least adjustment, for a switching regulator. One example current-sensing circuit generally includes a first amplifier, a buffer, a low-pass filter, a first switch coupled between an output of the first amplifier and an input of the buffer, a second switch coupled between the output of the first amplifier and an input of the low-pass filter, a third switch coupled between an output of the buffer and the input of the low-pass filter, and a fourth switch coupled between the input of the low-pass filter and a reference node for the circuit.
