    摘要: A control unit of a gate drive circuit applies, between a gate and a source of a switching element, a first voltage so as to turn on the switching element. After transference of drain current of the switching element, the control unit interrupts the first voltage and applies, between the gate and the source of the switching element, a second voltage that is lower than the first voltage and that is higher than a mirror voltage of the switching element. When no short-circuit current is flowing to the switching element, the control unit interrupts the second voltage and applies, between the gate and the source of the switching element, a third voltage higher than the second voltage.

    摘要: A gate drive circuit includes a resistor, a current detector that detects a current flowing through the resistor, and a gate driver. The gate driver applies an electric signal between a gate terminal and a source terminal of a module to drive a switching semiconductor element. One end of the resistor is connected to a drain terminal, the opposite end of the resistor is connected to one end of the current detector, and the opposite end of the current detector is connected to the gate driver. The current detector outputs a detection value of the current to the gate driver, and the gate driver changes a gate drive speed of the switching semiconductor element according to the detection value.
