A device includes a gate driver configured to output, to a gate of a switch, a turn-on voltage for activating the switch. The active gate bias driver is configured to actively drive a voltage at the gate of the switch to a first bias voltage during a first dead time of the switch and actively drive the voltage at the gate of the switch to a second bias voltage during a second dead time of the switch. The second bias voltage is different from the first bias voltage.

Active gate bias driver

A device is described that includes a gate driver configured to output, to a gate of a switch, a turn-on voltage for activating the switch in response to receiving an indication to activate the switch and an active gate bias driver configured to actively drive a voltage at the gate of the switch to a bias voltage in response to receiving an indication to deactivate the switch. The bias voltage is less than the turn-on voltage and wherein the bias voltage is greater than a ground voltage of the gate driver.

A power semiconductor package that includes a power semiconductor device having a threshold voltage that does not vary when subjected to an autoclave test.
