1. A device including:
output port configured to output an output signal;
a control port to receive a raw control signal;
control circuitry configured to control the output signal through an actuation based on the raw control signal and a conditioning response, the actuation causes deviation from an adjustment to the output signal prescribed by the raw control signal;
conditioning circuitry coupled to the control circuitry, the conditioning circuitry including:
a feedback port;
comparator circuitry configured to generate overdrive interference responsive to a feedback signal at the feedback port;
a feedback path coupled to the feedback port of the conditioning circuitry, the feedback path including a sensor coupled to the output port, the sensor configured to
monitor the output signal; and
the conditioning circuitry configured to:
control a trigger response timing of the actuation by including the overdrive interference in the conditioning response; and
apply the conditioning response to the control circuitry to cause the actuation.
