Abstract
A driving circuit for driving a power semiconductor switch wherein at least one semiconductor device being provided which is implemented in such a way that it is operated in breakdown in response to the exceeding of a specific collector-emitter voltage of the power semiconductor switch, an output of the at least one semiconductor device being connected via a conductive interconnect to a terminal between the resistors of the resistor series circuit or to the resistor-series-circuit output which is connected to the signal processing unit, and the breakdown voltage of the at least one semiconductor device being selected in such a way that the potential at the output of the at least one semiconductor device is greater than the potential at the gate of the power semiconductor switch in its ON state. The invention further relates to a method for driving a power semiconductor switch.
