Abstract
A gate driver circuit drives a switching transistor. A variable current source generates a reference current configured to switch between a first current amount and a second current amount smaller than the first current amount. A current distribution circuit is configured to switch between a source enabled state in which a source current proportional to the reference current is sourced to a gate node of the switching transistor and a disabled state in which the source current is made equal to zero. A first transistor fixes the gate node of the switching transistor to a high voltage in an on-state of the first transistor. A second transistor fixes the gate node of the switching transistor to a low voltage in an on-state of the second transistor.
