What is IGBT and its function?IGBT stands for Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor. It is a power semiconductor device that combines the advantages of both bipolar junction transistors (BJTs) and metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs). IGBTs are widely used in power electronics applications for controlling high power and voltage levels.
The main function of an IGBT is to switch and control electrical power in various electronic systems. It acts as a switch, enabling or interrupting the flow of current through it. When a small voltage is applied to the gate terminal, it controls the flow of a much larger current between the collector and emitter terminals.
IGBTs have several important features and functions, including:
IGBTs are commonly used in various applications such as power converters, motor drives, renewable energy systems, electric vehicles, industrial automation, and many other high-power electronic systems. They provide efficient and reliable control of electrical power, making them an essential component in modern power electronics.
