Application of insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT)

There are some application of insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) are,

• The insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) is used Ac and DC motor drivers.
• The IGBT is used in unregulated power supply (UPS) system.
• The IGBT is used to combines the simple gate-drive characteristics of MOSFET with the high-current and low-saturation-voltage of bipolar transistors.
• The IGBT is used in switched-mode power supplies (SMPS).
• It is used in traction motor control and induction heating.
• It is used in inverters.
• The IGBT is used to combines an isolated-gate FET for the control input and a bipolar power transistor as a switch in a single device.
