Abstract:
Devices and methods are provided where a control terminal resistance of a transistor device is set depending on operating conditions within a specified range of operating conditions.

Claim (Index 1):
A circuit comprising:\n a first circuit path coupled between a first reference voltage node and a plurality of first drive terminals configured to be coupled to a control node of a transistor device via a first resistor network, wherein the first circuit path is configured to connect the first reference voltage node to at least one first drive terminal of the plurality of first drive terminals when a switch control signal is in a first state, the first circuit path is configured to disconnect the first reference voltage node from the at least one first drive terminal when the switch control signal is in a second state different from the first state, and the first reference voltage node is configured to provide a voltage that sets the transistor device in a first switching state; and a second circuit path coupled between a second reference voltage node and a second drive terminal configured to be coupled to the control node of the transistor device via a second resistor network, wherein the second circuit path is configured to connect the second reference voltage node to the second drive terminal when the switch control signal is in the second state, the second circuit path is configured to disconnect the second reference voltage node from the second drive terminal when the switch control signal is in the first state, and the second reference voltage node is configured to provide a voltage that sets the transistor device in a second switching state different from the first switching state, the second reference voltage node is different from the first reference voltage node, and the first circuit path is different from the second circuit path, wherein the circuit is configured to select the at least one first drive terminal of the plurality of first drive terminals to which the first circuit path connects the first reference voltage node depending on operating conditions of the transistor device, the operating conditions are within a specified range of operating conditions for the transistor device, and the circuit is configured to select the at least one first drive terminal to set a resistance value between the control node of the transistor device and the first reference voltage node when the switch control signal is in the first state.
