Abstract

A gate driver circuit includes a pulse generator that receives an input signal and generates a pulse signal in response to a switch-on command included in the input signal. The pulse signal has a pulse with a pulse length that is dependent on a level of a pulse control signal. The circuit further includes a sampling circuit that samples an output voltage subsequent to the pulse and stores a respective sampled value, and a controller that receives the sampled value of the output voltage and a reference voltage and updates the level of the pulse control signal based on the sampled value and the reference voltage. A driver circuit generates the output voltage based on the pulse signal.
