Summary:In one embodiment, a (pre)driver circuit (10) includes first (10a) and a second (10b) output terminal for driving electronic switches, such as e.g. MOSFETs (S) including a control terminal (GN, GP) and a e.g. source-drain current path through the switch (SN, SP), the arrangement admitting: - one or more first driving configurations (e.g. for PMOS), with the first (10a) and second (10b) output terminals are coupled to the current path (SP) and the control electrode (GP) of the electronic switch (S), respectively, and - one or more second driving configurations (e.g. for NMOS, both HS and LS), wherein the first (10a) and second (10b) output terminals of the driver circuit (10) are coupled to the control electrode (GN) and the current path (SN) of the electronic switch, respectively.
