A device is described that includes a gate driver configured to output, to a gate of a switch, a turn-on voltage for activating the switch in response to receiving an indication to activate the switch and an active gate bias driver configured to actively drive a voltage at the gate of the switch to a bias voltage in response to receiving an indication to deactivate the switch. The bias voltage is less than the turn-on voltage and wherein the bias voltage is greater than a ground voltage of the gate driver.
