Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a first switch and a first driver. The first switch selects and outputs one of a power supply potential and a generated potential as a first switch output potential based on a synchronization signal from a transmission circuit and a delayed signal delayed from the synchronization signal. The first driver charges a gate of a bipolar transistor element based on the synchronization signal of the transmission circuit and the first switch output potential.
