Abstract
A power converter apparatus comprises a set of switching elements communicatively coupled with a set of gate drive circuits. Each gate drive circuit is configured to provide a respective drive signal to a corresponding switching element, each switching element being switchably responsive to the respective drive signal. The apparatus includes a controller module configured to control an output state of the power converter, and selectively change one of a respective gate resistance and a respective gate current of a corresponding subset of the gate drive circuits based on the output state of the power converter.
