Abstract :
IGBT´s are the work horse in Power Electronics. Due to improvements of the IGBTs they find also many applications in the field of Pulsed power. The switching losses of an IGBT are normally given from the supplier, but for typical converter applications. These data are not valid for Pulsed Power applications. In this paper parametric measurements of turn on losses are shown for IGBTs in a typical pulsed power application.
