Abstract
A resonant gate drive circuits for a voltage controlled transistor according to the embodiments are characterized by connecting a resonant inductor and a resistor to a gate of the voltage controlled transistor or a gate of the normally-on voltage controlled transistor or a voltage control terminal of a pseudo normally-off element, in series, and providing the drive circuit with two complementary switching elements connected in series.
