A current replication circuit that avoids the LEB period restriction of a DC-DC boost converter. The DC-DC boost converter regulates an output voltage by switching an input voltage through an inductor and a diode using a switch controller employing current feedback control and providing a PWM signal to control a switch coupled to the inductor. The current replication circuit includes a current sensor, a ramp generator, and a summing device. The current sensor samples current through the inductor while the switch is off and provides a sample voltage indicative of inductor current just before the switch is turned on. The ramp generator provides a ramp voltage replicating current increase of the inductor while the switch is on. The summing device adds the sample voltage to the ramp voltage to develop a replication voltage used for feedback current control by the switch controller.
