Abstract

In a current mode pulse width modulation (PWM) integrated drive system having an external load, a switched-capacitor amplifier and a sample & hold stage connected in cascade form a current sensing amplifier for a control loop. The current sensing amplifier overcomes resistive mismatchings, thus permitting a scaling down of the supply voltage with high precision for the integrated drive system.
