Abstract
An electronic device controlling power provided from a power source to an electrical load is described. The electronic device includes dimmer circuitry converting an alternating current (AC) power signal from the power source into a load power signal for the lighting load, and feedback circuitry generating signaling for controlling a switching timing of the dimmer circuitry. The electronic device generates feedback signaling for controlling an amount of power provided from an AC power source to an electrical load by turning on dimmer circuitry and generating a load power signal provided to a load, generating a feedback signal for controlling any of a voltage value, a timing, and a rate of change of a voltage applied to a gate of a metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET), and controlling a transition through a threshold voltage of the MOSFET gate according to the feedback signal.
