Abstract
A power converter includes a transformer having a primary-side winding connected to a switch, and a controller connected to a gate node of the switch. The controller includes a switch timing and control module to generate switch control pulses, a gate driver to receive the switch control pulses and generate gate control pulses therefrom to control the switch, and a gate drive controller to provide a switch transition speed control signal to the gate driver to control a switch transition speed of the switch for each pulse of the gate control pulses. Based on an operating mode of the power converter, the gate drive controller is configured to set the switch transition speed of the gate driver to a first speed for generating an initial gate control pulse and to set the switch transition speed of the gate driver to a second speed for generating subsequent gate control pulses.
