Device for controlling the speed of a turbosupercharger in an internal-combustion engine comprising: a compressor, a turbine, a wastegate valve; the control device comprising: a calculating unit, which receives at input a set of parameters comprising a pre-set limit speed of rotation of the turbosupercharger, the air pressure measured at input to the compressor, and the mass flow rate of the compressor, and is designed to process the parameters for determining, through a predetermined map that characterizes operation of the compressor, a limit supercharging pressure correlated to the air pressure obtainable at output from the compressor in a condition of rotation of the turbine at a speed substantially equal to the preset limit speed of rotation; a comparison unit designed to verify whether a required objective supercharging pressure satisfies a preset relation with the calculated limit supercharging pressure; and a driving unit, which, in the case where the preset relation is satisfied, is designed to govern the wastegate valve for controlling the speed of the turbine as a function of the limit supercharging pressure so as to limit the speed of rotation of the turbosupercharger to a value substantially equal to the limit speed of rotation.
