Abstract :
Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBTs) are widely used in both commercial and industrial appliances, and the applications for commercial appliances such as strobe flash, plasma display panel (PDP) TV and induction heating (IH) cooker, in particular, is diverse. We have developed advanced, application-specific IGBTs with high current density for strobe flash, fast turn-on characteristics for PDP and low on-state voltage characteristics for IH cooker. This paper describes the performance requirement and technical development of the latest Discrete IGBTs.
