Abstract
A power drive circuit is disclosed. The power circuit includes: a pulse detector, configured to generate first and second control signals in response to first and second pulse signals, respectively. The power drive circuit also includes a state storage device, configured to generate first and second driver input signals in response to the first and second control signals, respectively. The power drive circuit also includes a driver configured to generate first and second gate drive signals in response to the first and second driver input signals, respectively. The power drive circuit also includes a power switch, configured to receive the first and second gate drive signals, where the first and second gate drive signals control the power switch to selectively conduct or not conduct current between first and second terminals.
