The phase shifters are programmed to provide this increasing or decreasing phase differences.

Abstract: A power converter incorporating a synchronous rectifier implements adaptive gate voltage regulation for fast turn-off of the synchronous rectifier. In some embodiments, the adaptive gate voltage regulation circuit and method monitors the slope of the synchronous rectifier current during the on period of the synchronous rectifier. In response to detecting the synchronous rectifier current decreasing rapidly, a larger gate discharge current is applied to quickly discharge the synchronous rectifier gate voltage. In response to detecting the synchronous rectifier current decreasing more moderately, a smaller gate discharge current is applied to discharge the synchronous rectifier gate voltage in a moderate manner. When the synchronous rectifier can be turned off quickly, large reverse current and large drain voltage spike at the synchronous rectifier is avoided. The adaptive gate voltage regulation circuit and method is particularly useful when the power converter is operated in the discontinuous conduction mode.
