Abstract
A switching regulator circuit has a switching transistor actuated during a switching on phase of a duty cycle. The current flowing through an inductor of the switching regulator circuit is determined from sensing a transistor current flowing through the switching transistor during switching on phase and selectively charging a capacitor of a switched capacitor circuit dependent on a current sense signal during the switching on phase.
