Abstract

A gate driver configured to apply a drive voltage signal to a gate of a switching element includes a low-voltage circuit chip and a high-voltage circuit chip. The low-voltage circuit chip includes a low-voltage circuit configured to be actuated by application of a first voltage. The high-voltage circuit chip includes a high-voltage circuit configured to be actuated by application of a second voltage that is higher than the first voltage. The gate driver further includes multiple transformer chips connected in series to each other. The low-voltage circuit chip and the high-voltage circuit chip are connected by the multiple transformer chips and configured to transmit a signal through the multiple transformer chips.
