    Abstract: A drive circuit drives driven switches connected in parallel with one another. The driven switches each include first, second main, and main control terminals. When a potential difference of the main control terminal with respect to the second main terminal becomes greater than or equal to a threshold voltage, the flow of current between the first and second main terminals is permitted. At least two driven switches have different threshold voltages. The drive circuit includes, for each driven switch, an electrical path electrically connecting the second main terminal or a negative voltage supply, which is at a negative voltage lower than the potential of the second main terminal, to the main control terminal. The impedance of each of the electrical paths is set so the potential difference increased by electric charge flowing into the electrical path through a parasitic capacitance of the driven switch becomes less than the threshold voltage.

    Abstract: In a driver, a charging module electrically charges the on-off control terminal of the switching element for turning on the switching element, and a limiting module performs a task of limiting a voltage at the on-off control terminal of the switching element by a predetermined voltage to thereby limit an increase of a current flowing between the input and output terminals of the switching element. A determining module determines whether the voltage at the on-off control terminal of the switching element deviates from the predetermined voltage while the limiting module is performing the limiting task. A correcting module corrects the voltage at the on-off control terminal of the switching element to be close to the predetermined voltage when it is determined that the voltage at the on-off control terminal of the switching element deviates from the predetermined voltage.

    Abstract: In a drive apparatus, a transmission unit mounted to a first region stops transmission of a pulse signal from a physical-quantity transmission terminal. The transmission unit transmits, from the failure information transmission terminal, a first signal indicative of an occurrence of the failure associated with the target switch when it is determined that the failure associated with the target switch has occurred, and transmits, from the physical-quantity transmission terminal, a second signal indicative of a content of the failure associated with the target switch. A controller mounted to a second region electrically isolated from the first region detects, based on the pulse signal from the physical-quantity transmission terminal, the physical quantity upon no input of the first signal to the controller. The controller identifies, based on the second signal transmitted from the physical-quantity transmission terminal, the content of the failure upon the first signal being input to the controller.

    Abstract: A driving apparatus for driving switching elements of a power conversion circuit. In the apparatus, a first determination unit determines whether or not a dead time that occurs immediately after a setting of discharge rate is changed is greater than the dead time assumed at the time of designing. When the dead time occurring immediately after the setting of discharge rate is changed is greater than the dead time assumed at the time of designing, a shift unit shifts in time at least one of transition to an OFF state of one of the upper-arm and lower-arm switching elements and transition to an ON state of the other of the upper-arm and lower-arm switching elements immediately after the transition to the OFF state so as to reduce a time difference between the transition to the OFF state and the transition to the ON state.
