US Patent Issued to ROHM on Jan. 27 for "Gate driver circuit" (Japanese Inventor)

ALEXANDRIA, Va., Jan. 28 -- United States Patent no. 12,537,520, issued on Jan. 27, was assigned to ROHM Co. LTD. (Kyoto, Japan).

"Gate driver circuit" was invented by Hisashi Sugie (Kyoto, Japan).

According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "The present disclosure provides a gate driver circuit. An external resistor is connected to a setting pin. A high-side dead time circuit is configured to receive a first high-side control signal and generate a second high-side control signal. An analog delay circuit is configured to delay the first high-side control signal by a delay time corresponding to a resistance value of the external resistor to generate a delayed high-side control signal. A selector is configured...
