Abstract

An inverter driver includes: a switching device; a drive circuit driving the switching device; a current detection device generating a voltage signal corresponding to a current flowing through the switching device; a noise filter removing noise superposed on the voltage signal; an excess current detection circuit outputting an excess current detection signal when the voltage signal input via the noise filter exceeds a first threshold value; and a short circuit detection circuit outputting an error signal when the excess current detection signal is input or the voltage signal input by bypassing the noise filter exceeds a second threshold value.
