What is IGBTs?

IGBTs (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistors) are semiconductor devices used as electronic switches for high-power applications. They combine the characteristics of MOSFETs (metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors) and BJTs (bipolar junction transistors). IGBTs are commonly used in variable-frequency drives, electric vehicles, welding machines, uninterruptible power supplies (UPS), and other high-voltage, high-current applications due to their ability to handle high power levels with efficient switching speeds.
