A current measurement linearization circuit for a DC/DC boost converter includes a back-gate sensing transistor and a back-gate reset transistor. The back-gate sensing transistor has a first terminal coupled to a first body contact of a high-side power transistor and a second terminal coupled to a second body contact of a first replica transistor in a valley-current sensing circuit. The back-gate reset transistor has a first terminal coupled to a max reference voltage that is equal to the greater of an input voltage and an output voltage and a second terminal coupled to the second body contact.
