Abstract
Described is an apparatus which comprises: an output node; a capacitor; an inductor having a first terminal coupled to the output node, and a second terminal coupled to the capacitor; a bridge to receive an input power supply and to generate a switching voltage signal at the output node; and a current sensor to determine slope of the switching voltage signal on the output node.
