Power transistor driver with reduced spikes for switching converters
Last updated:
Abstract:
A driver for driving a power transistor, the driver having: a first transistor, and a second transistor; wherein (1) when the first transistor is turned on, the second transistor is simultaneously turned on, and wherein after the second transistor remains on for a first time period, the second transistor is turned off for a second time period during when a switching voltage at a second terminal of the power transistor is rising, and the second transistor is turned on after the second time period is over; and (2) when the first transistor is turned off, the second transistor is simultaneously turned off.
