Drive circuits for Power MOSFETs and IGBTs

2.1 Gate vs Base Power MOSFETs and IGBTs are simply voltage driven switches, because their insulated gate behaves like a capacitor. Conversely, switches such as triacs, thyristors and bipolar transistors are “current” controlled, in the same way as a PN diode. 2.2 Driving a gate
