Abstract

Efficient Switching of IGBT's requires fast gate drivers with high peak currents. This Paper will review the requirements for effient, reliable gate drive of IGBT's and behaviour of an IGBT switching chacteristcs. The purpose of the present paper is to investigate the switching loss mechanisms in IGBT such as MOSFETs in order to give a support to designers of IGBT gate drive circuits in selecting the more appropriate IGBTs to be used on the basics of design repuirements.
