Abstract :
In this paper, the experimental performance of a 20 A 1.2 kV punch through CIGBT fabricated under manufacturing environment is presented for the first time. On state and switching performance of the device is analysed at room and elevated temperatures. Influence of the device layout in terms of number of the cathode cells per single cluster upon device performance is investigated experimentally
