Abstract
In an embodiment an isolated gate driver device includes a low-voltage section having a control input configured to receive a PWM control signal with a switching frequency from a control stage, a high-voltage section, galvanically isolated from the low-voltage section the high-voltage section including a driving output configured to provide a gate-driving signal as a function of the PWM control signal to a power stage having at least one switch, a feedback input configured to receive at least one feedback signal indicative of an operation of the power stag, and an ADC module configured to convert the feedback signal into a digital data stream and a conversion-control module coupled to the ADC module and configured to provide a conversion-trigger signal designed to determine a start of a conversion for acquiring a new sample of the feedback signal.
