Abstract

An object is to provide a technique that suppresses heat generation in a first semiconductor switching element and a second semiconductor switching element. A semiconductor device includes a gate drive circuit that drives each of the first semiconductor switching element and the second semiconductor switching element based on an input signal. When a first gate voltage applied to the first gate to turn On the first semiconductor switching element is lower than a first threshold, the gate drive circuit turns Off the first semiconductor switching element after turns Off the second semiconductor switching element regardless of the input signal.
