Abstract
A power semiconductor device driving circuit has a capacitor whose one end is connected with a first or a second main electrode of a power semiconductor device, a first switch for charging the capacitor and a control electrode of the power semiconductor device with electric charges, and a second switch for discharging electric charges; in the case where when the first switch turns on, the control electrode and the capacitor are charged with electric charges through different resistors, electric charges are discharged from the control electrode and the capacitor through one and the same resistor when the second switch turns on; in the case where when the first switch turns on, the control electrode and the capacitor are charged with electric charges through one and the same resistor, electric charges are discharged from the control electrode and the capacitor through different resistors when the second switch turns on.
