What is IGBT?
An IGBT (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) is a three-terminal power semiconductor device primarily used as an electronic switch. It combines the simple gate-drive characteristics of MOSFETs with the high-current and low-saturation-voltage capability of bipolar transistors. IGBTs are commonly used in power electronics applications, such as variable-frequency drives (VFDs), electric vehicles, and uninterruptible power supplies (UPS).
