Abstract:
Devices, systems, and methods are described herein for a low static current semiconductor device. A semiconductor device includes a power transistor and a driving circuit coupled to and configured to drive the power transistor. The driving circuit includes a first stage having an enhancement-mode high-electron-mobility transistor (HEMT) and a a second stage that is coupled between the first stage and the power transistor and that includes a pair of enhancement-mode HEMTs.
