Abstract:
A gate potential control device configured to control potential of a gate of a main switching element is provided herein. The gate potential control device includes: a turn-on switching element and a turn-off switching element. In a turn-off operation, a main voltage between main terminals of the main switching element increases from an on-voltage to a peak value of a surge voltage and then decreases to an off-voltage. The gate potential control device is configured to keep both of the turn-on switching element and the turn-off switching element turned off in a period which is at least a part of a specific period in the turn-off operation, the specific period being from a timing after a predetermined time lapse from a timing of rise-up of the main voltage from the on-voltage to a timing at which the main voltage reaches the peak value.

Claim (Index 4):
The gate potential control device of  claim 1 , wherein an ending timing of the period in which both of the turn-on switching element and the turn-off switching element are kept turned off is prior to a timing at which the main voltage reaches the peak value.
