Abstract
A rectifying device includes a power transistor, a gate control circuit and a capacitor structure arranged on a single semiconductor die. The power transistor includes a source or emitter terminal connected to a first terminal of the rectifying device, a drain or collector terminal connected to a second terminal of the rectifying device, and a gate. The gate control circuit is operable to control a gate voltage at the gate of the power transistor based on at least one parameter relating to at least one of a voltage and a current between the first terminal and the second terminal.
