Zusammenfassung:A voltage regulator utilizes a non-invasive sensing capacitor in differentially sensing a current indicative of current of an output capacitor of the voltage regulator. Some embodiments utilize current mirrors and an inverter for determining if the current indicative of current of the output capacitor is above or below a particular magnitude. Some embodiments utilize information indicative of output capacitor current in determining duty cycle for a switching voltage regulator, and some embodiments utilize the information in activating transient control circuitry.
