Abstract: A switch system includes a bidirectional switch, a first gate driver circuit, a second gate driver circuit, a control unit, a first decision unit, and a second decision unit. The bidirectional switch includes a first source, a second source, a first gate, and a second gate. The first decision unit determines, based on a voltage at the first gate and a first threshold voltage, a state of the first gate in a first period in which a signal to turn OFF the first gate is output from the control unit to the first gate driver circuit. The second decision unit determines, based on a voltage at the second gate and a second threshold voltage, a state of the second gate in a second period in which a signal to turn OFF the second gate is output from the control unit to the second gate driver circuit.

Abstract: A power conversion system converts an input alternating-current voltage having a first frequency into an output alternating-current voltage having a second frequency lower than the first frequency. The power conversion system includes a voltage converter, a PDM controller, and a feedback controller. The voltage converter converts the input alternating-current voltage into the output alternating-current voltage in accordance with control signals and outputs the output alternating-current voltage to a load. The PDM controller performs pulse density modulation of an output voltage command value of the output alternating-current voltage to generate the control signals and outputs the control signals to the voltage converter. The feedback controller generates the output voltage command value based on an output current value of the voltage converter and a state of the load and outputs the output voltage command value to the PDM controller.
