Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To eliminate malfunction in a gate drive circuit for driving the gate of a MOSFET. SOLUTION: A first switching circuit 40 switches between a power source voltage Vcc and a gate of a MOSFET 1. A second switching circuit 50 switches between the ground and the gate of the MOSFET 1. Since a diode 53 is connected between a collector of a transistor 51 in the second switching circuit 50 and the gate of the MOSFET 1; even if the MOSFET 1 is turned off and a current flows to a parasitic capacity 20 to lower a gate voltage, a parasitic transistor being parasitic on the transistor 51 does not operate and a transistor 52 can be surely turned on.
