The present disclosure introduces a gate driver used to drive a power electronic switch of a commutation cell. The gate driver comprises a turn-off current source connected to a gate of the power electronic switch and an additional current source. The additional current source is in parallel to the turn-off current source of the gate driver and is configured to control a collector to emitter voltage variation at turn off of the power electronic switch. A circuit combining the gate driver with a commutation cell having a power electronic switch, a circuit combining a pair of gate drivers with a leg having two commutation cells including two power electronic switches and a converter including such circuits are also disclosed. |
