Abstract

In some examples, a device includes control circuitry configured to receive a first input signal, receive a second input signal, and cause gate driver circuitry to deliver a driver signal to a switch to cause the switch to deliver electrical power to an electrical load. In some examples, the control circuitry is further configured to determine whether the first input signal has an active value and determine whether the second input signal has an active value. In some examples, the control circuitry is also configured to cause the gate driver circuitry to change the driver signal across a switching cycle of the switch to increase or decrease the electrical power delivered by the switch to the electrical load in response to determining that the first input signal has the active value or in response to determining that the second input signal has the active value.
