Abstract
A pulse-width-to-voltage (“PWV”) converter, comprises: a switch, a capacitor, a current source, and a current sink. The switch is operable by a signal. The current source, the current sink, and the switch are serially connected across a high voltage potential and a low voltage potential. An output node is coupled to a serial connection between the current source and the current sink. An end of the capacitor is coupled to the output node for converting a current into a control voltage indicative of a duty cycle of the signal.
