Abstract
In accordance with these and other embodiments of the present disclosure, an apparatus and a method may include receiving a first input configured to indicate an output voltage of an output node of a switched output stage comprising a pull-down driver device coupled at its non-gate terminals between a ground voltage and the output node and a pull-up driver device coupled at its non-gate terminals between a supply voltage and the output node. The method may also include receiving a second input configured to indicate a gate voltage of a gate terminal of a first one of the pull-up driver device and the pull-down driver device. The method may further include detecting direction of an output current flowing into or out of the output node based on the first input and the second input.
