Abstract: An apparatus configured to measure a load current provided to a load of a switching converter includes a pulse generation circuit configured to generate a control pulse based on a power switch driving signal of the switching converter, a reference current generation circuit configured to generate a reference current based on the control pulse, a clock generation circuit configured to generate a clock signal based on the control pulse and the reference current, and a clock counter configured to count the number of cycles of the clock signal during a switching period of the switching converter. The reference current generation circuit is configured to adjust the reference current to compensate for a leakage current generated in the clock generation circuit during the switching period.

Abstract: A charger circuit includes a first path regulator, a path switch, and a second path regulator. The first path regulator is configured to generate a first regulation current based on an input voltage and an input current. The path switch is configured to pass or block a first charging current in response to a control signal. The first charging current is generated based on the first regulation current. The second path regulator is configured to generate a second regulation current based on the input voltage and the input current. At least one of the first charging current and a second charging current is used to charge a battery. The second charging current is generated based on the second regulation current. The second charging current is transferred to the battery without passing through the path switch.

Abstract: A voltage converter includes first and second charging elements, first and second switches, and first and second switch controllers. The first switch controller adjusts a first activation timing of a first control signal in response to a pulse width modulation signal, a switch signal, and a first control signal. The first control signal is a signal for controlling the first switch. The second switch controller adjusts a second activation timing of a second control signal in response to the pulse width modulation signal, the first control signal, and a second control signal. The second control signal is a signal for controlling the second switch.
