The gate capacitor though, cannot change its voltage instantaneously. Thus, a power FET or IGBT has a non-zero, finite switching interval. During switching, the device may be in high current and high voltage state, which results in power dissipation in the form of heat. Thus, transition ...

Typically, 15 V to 18 V is applied at the gate to reduce VCE(on). The IGBT is a minority-carrier device with high input impedance and the capacity to carry a large, bipolar current. The switching characteristics of an IGBT are similar to that of a power MOSFET. Assuming identical ...
A high power IGBT requires isolated gate drivers to control their operations. Each IGBT is driven by a single gate driver that is isolated from the high-voltage output to the low-voltage control inputs. Also, as the emitter of the top IGBT floats, it necessitates the using of isolated ...
