www.st.comThe insulated-gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs) combine a MOS gate with high-current and low-saturation-voltage capability of bipolar transistors as illustrated in Figure 1, and they are the right choice for high-current and high voltage applications. IGBT and MOSFET operation is very similar. A positive voltage, applied from the emitter to

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 As shown in figure 2, driving a gate consists of applying different voltages: 15V to turn on the device
