Methods, apparatus, and systems to drive a transistor

Abstract:

Methods, apparatus, and systems are disclosed to drive a transistor. An example apparatus includes a regulator including a first input terminal adapted to be coupled to a control terminal of a transistor, a first output terminal, and a second output terminal, a first stage including a first input terminal coupled to the first output terminal of the regulator and an output terminal adapted to be coupled to the control terminal of the transistor, and a second stage including an input terminal coupled to the second output terminal of the regulator, and an output terminal adapted to be coupled to the control terminal of the transistor.
