  • Publication number: 20170288657
    Abstract: A gate drive circuit has a capacitor and a gate drive voltage source connected in series with a gate terminal of a voltage-driven switching device. The gate drive source voltage feeds, as a gate drive voltage, a voltage higher than the sum of the voltage applied to a gate-source parasitic capacitance of the switching device when the switching device is in a steady ON state and the voltage applied to, of any circuit component interposed between the gate drive voltage source and the gate terminal of the switching device, a circuit component other than the capacitor (such as an upper transistor forming the output stage of the driver). No other circuit component (such as a resistor connected in parallel with the capacitor) is essential but the capacitor as the sole circuit component to be directly connected to the gate terminal of the switching device.
