Abstract
A method for sensing current includes (a) generating a first current signal representing magnitude of current flowing through a sensing element while a first switching device is in its on-state and a second switching device is in its off-state, each of the first switching device and the second switching device being electrically coupled to the sensing element, (b) generating a second current signal representing magnitude of current flowing through the sensing element while the first switching device is in its off-state and the second switching device is in its on-state, and (c) generating a composite current signal from the first current signal and the second current signal, the composite current signal representing magnitude of current flowing through the sensing element.
