摘要:
The present invention provides a switching device (100) for power conversion in which a first gate electrode (6), a p-type channel layer (2) having an n-type emitter region (3), a second gate electrode (13), and a p-type floating layer (15) are repeatedly arranged in order on the surface side of an n-type semiconductor substrate (1). An interval a between the two gates (6, 13) that sandwich the p-type channel layer (2) is configured to be smaller than an interval b between the two gates (13, 6) that sandwich the p-type floating layer (15). The first gate electrode (6) and the second gate electrode (13) are both supplied with drive signals having a time difference in drive timing.
