  • Patent number: 10418987
    Abstract: A level shifting circuit has an input configured to receive an input signal, wherein the input signal has symmetrical maximum and minimum voltages. The level shifting circuit further includes an output configured to provide an output signal, wherein the output signal has asymmetrical maximum and minimum voltages. The output signal is generated in response to the input signal. The output signal is applied to drive a gate terminal of a SiC MOSFET.
    Type: Grant
