Application of IGBT

IGBT is an insulated gate bipolar power tube, which is a composite fully-controlled voltage-driven power semiconductor device consisting of a bipolar triode and an insulated-gate field effect tube, with the advantages of high input impedance and low on-state voltage drop.

As one of the important high-power mainstream devices in power electronics, IGBTs have been widely used in household appliances, transportation, power engineering, renewable energy and smart grid and other fields. In industrial applications, such as traffic control, power conversion, industrial motors, uninterruptible power supply, wind power and solar energy equipment, as well as inverters for automatic control. In consumer electronics, IGBTs are used in home appliances, cameras and cell phones.
