Abstract
A switching device includes: a lower switching element, an upper switching element having a source connected to a drain of the lower switching element; a control circuit including a first output part that supplies a driving signal to the lower switching element; a Zener diode having a cathode connected to the first output part; a parallel capacitor connected to the Zener diode in parallel; a resistor connected between an anode of the Zener diode and a gate of the lower switching element; and a gate-side capacitor provided separate from a parasitic capacitance of the lower switching element, having a larger capacitance than the parasitic capacitance of the lower switching element, and connected, outside the lower switching element, between the gate and a source of the lower switching element. The capacitance of the gate-side capacitor is smaller than a capacitance of the parallel capacitor.
