Abstract
A gate potential control circuit includes a driving switching element, a first gate potential supply part, a first switching element, a first resistor, and a first operational amplifier. The first operational amplifier includes an output portion connected to a gate of the first switching element, an inverting input into which a first reference potential is input, and a non-inverting input into which a closer one of a first value and a second value to a potential of the first gate potential supply part is input. The first value is based on a potential difference obtained by subtracting a potential of a terminal of the first resistor on a driving switching element side from a potential of a terminal of the first resistor on a first gate potential supply part side. The second value is based on a potential of a terminal of the first switching element.
