low side FET to rise. If this voltage spike peaks beyond the threshold voltage V

Considering that the high side FET is also conducting, this can result in a potentially destructive shoot-

through event.

The GS-EVB-HB-0650603B-HD EVB uses a bipolar gate drive arrangement which is useful to mitigate

against the effects of gate-drain capacitor currents. The secondary supply voltage V
