摘要： A system and method for determining an initial duty cycle for startup of a voltage regulator involves generating a first current source responsive to an input voltage to the voltage regulator and generating a second current source responsive to an output voltage of the voltage regulator. A first capacitor is charged using the first current source responsive to a duty cycle of a PWM signal of the voltage regulator to a first voltage. A second capacitor is charged to a second voltage responsive to a period of the PWM signal of the voltage regulator. The initial duty cycle for startup of the voltage regulator is established as the duty cycle of the PWM signal when the first voltage is substantially equal to the second voltage.
