Adaptive gate drivers and related methods and systems

A system comprising:

• a motor;
• a traction inverter coupled to the motor, the traction inverter including a silicon carbide (SiC) transistor;
• first and second resistors;
• a diode;
• and
• a gate driver including:
• a comparator having a comparator output and first and second comparator inputs, in which the first comparator input is coupled to a threshold voltage terminal, and the second comparator input is coupled:
• through the first resistor and the diode to the SiC transistor;
• and through the first resistor and the second resistor to a ground terminal;
• a latch having a latch input and a latch output, in which the latch input is coupled to the comparator output;
• a first transistor having a first control terminal and a first output terminal, in which the first output terminal is coupled to a control terminal of the SiC transistor;
• a second transistor smaller than the first transistor, in which the second transistor has a second control terminal and a second output terminal, and the second output terminal is coupled to the control terminal of the SiC transistor;
• and
• control logic having a logic input and first and second logic outputs, in which the logic input is coupled to the latch output, the first logic output is coupled to the first control terminal, and the second logic output is coupled to the second control terminal.
