Claim 8:
9. A driver product for controlling a high-power drive device, the driver product comprising:
an output node;
a variable strength driver circuit coupled to the output node, the variable strength driver circuit being configured to provide a current to the output node, the current having a strength based on a multi-bit digital control signal; and
a driver controller circuit configured to generate the multi-bit digital control signal based on a received control signal and a predetermined profile of a multi-phase turn-on process for the high-power drive device coupled to the output node, a first indication of a sensed voltage level on the output node during a first phase of the multi-phase turn-on process, and a second indication of a time elapsed from a start of the first phase.
