Abstract :
To imitate the static and dynamic behavior of the integrated gate-commutated thyristor (IGCT), this paper presents a new circuit level model for this high voltage high power device, which is implemented in PSIM simulation tool. The effectiveness of this model is verified by comparing simulation with experimental results of a 4.5 kV/4 kA IGCT device
