Patent ID: 7616047

Claim:
Transistor arrangement ( 1 ) comprising a transistor ( 10 ), having a first and a second terminal ( 12 , 14 ) and a control terminal ( 16 ), which sets a current flow (i D ) between the first and second terminals ( 12 , 14 ), and furthermore comprising a signal conditioning device ( 22 ), which applies a transistor control voltage (u GS ) to the control terminal ( 16 ) in a manner dependent on a differential voltage (u DS ) present between the first and second terminals ( 12 , 14 ), wherein a driving apparatus ( 23 ), which is assigned to the signal conditioning device ( 22 ) and switches the latter between at least two operating modes, and wherein a summation point ( 32 ) adds a substantially constant voltage (U pos ) to the differential voltage (u DS ) occasionally in a manner dependent on a drive signal (u WR ) of the driving apparatus ( 23 ).
