Abstract
In an embodiment, a system includes controller circuitry to initiate a plurality of energy transfer cycles. Each energy transfer cycle includes an input time period during which corresponding input energy is received by a power train, and an output time period during which corresponding output energy is output from the power train. The system also includes energy detection logic to provide, upon completion of each energy transfer cycle, a corresponding indication of corresponding residual energy retained by the power train. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
