There is described a detecting device of the distribution profile of current of a switching converter; the converter has an input voltage and is adapted to supply an output current. The device comprises means adapted to convert a signal indicating the output current of the converter into a digital signal comprising p digital samples, being p an integer, processed in p successive time intervals belonging to a time period. The detecting device comprises further means adapted to process each sample of the plurality of samples by comparing each sample with a respective plurality of n reference currents, being n an integer, having a value successively increasing from the first to the last and associated with a plurality of n counters, and by supplying a single i-th counter of said plurality of counters, being i an integer between 1 and n, said supplying occurring if the sample has a higher value than the i-th reference current, but lower than the i+1-th reference current; said further means are adapted to process all p samples.
