Abstract
A system and method for sensing a current. The system includes an operational amplifier including a first input terminal, a second input terminal, and a first output terminal. The first input terminal is biased to a predetermined voltage, and the second input terminal and the first output terminal are directly connected. Additionally, the system includes a switch coupled to the first output terminal and a first node. The switch is controlled by at least a first control signal. Moreover, the system includes a comparator including a third input terminal, a fourth input terminal, and at least a second output terminal. The comparator is configured to receive a first input signal at the third input terminal and a second input signal at the fourth input terminal. The first input signal and the second input signal are associated with the first node and the predetermined voltage.
