1. A control apparatus configured to control a gate circuit, the control apparatus comprising:
a gate signal generation circuit configured to generate a gate signal to switch a state of the gate circuit;
a transmitter configured to transmit the generated gate signal;
a receiver configured to receive the transmitted gate signal; and
an error processing circuit configured to process an error in the received gate signal and to output the gate signal to the gate circuit,
wherein:
a process delay by the error processing circuit is greater than a sampling period of the gate signal switching the state of the gate circuit, and is equal to or less than a time to retain the state of the gate circuit, and
a pulse width of the gate signal is larger than the time to retain the state of the gate circuit, and is a time equivalent to an integer multiple of the sampling period.
