More Information
Summary:In one aspect, a circuit includes a gate driver having a first input connected to a first node and a second input connected to a second node; an epi diode connected to the first node; a switch connected to the first node; a capacitor having a top plate connected to the switch and a bottom plate connected to the second node; and a first clamp connected the first node and to the second node. The switch being open isolates the first node from negative transient effects from the top plate of the capacitor.
