Abstract
In an example, a circuit includes an emulated current generator configured to provide an emulated current signal responsive to a charge current and a discharge current. The emulated current signal can be representative of an emulated current through an output inductor. A comparator is configured to provide a comparator signal responsive to the emulated current signal and sensed current signal representative of a measure of current through the output inductor. An inductor code counter is configured to adjust an inductor code count value responsive to the comparator signal. A slope of the emulated current signal can be adjusted responsive to the inductor code count value.
