Abstract
An integrated circuit for measuring current while receiving wireless power is described. The integrated circuit measures a current across a resistor by an amplifier. A gain of the amplifier is based on a pair of matched upstairs resistors and a pair of matched downstairs resistors. The pair of matched upstairs resistors may include an offset in resistance. The integrated circuit includes a switch matrix with switches coupled between the integrated resistor and the pair of matched upstairs resistors. The offset for the pair of matched upstairs resistors may be measured by selectively controlling the switches.
