What is IGBT? What is its working principle? What are its advantages?
I=Insulate G=Gate B=Bipolar T=Transistor—---IGBT, Insulated gate bipolar transistor
From high-speed rail, electric vehicles, to air conditioners, induction cookers, all of these products have its presence, and they all have a common characteristic - high voltage, which is its circuit symbol
G is the gate of the MOS transistor that follows the mother, C E follows the father, collector and emitter, and IGBT combines the advantages of father and mother
Combining the advantages of low driving current of MOSFETs and low on resistance of transistors, MOSFETs are electric field driving devices. When they conduct, their G S poles act as circuit breakers.
The current is extremely small, so the driving current of MOSFETs is low. When the transistor saturates and conducts, its CE resistance is very small, so the conduction resistance of the transistor is low.
The equivalent circuit symbol of IGBT is a combination of both.
When we give G a very low power frequency, the IGBT will cut off, which is equivalent to a switch being disconnected. When we give G a very high power frequency, the MOS lead is turned on, and then the CE pole of the transistor forms a current, and the IGBT conducts. This is the principle of IGBT.
Its main function is to convert high-voltage direct current into alternating current, as well as frequency conversion.
By combining a transistor and a MOSFET in this way, it is possible to withstand high voltages while also being able to withstand high currents.
Is MOS transistor chosen in the circuit? Triode? Or IGBT? As a switch function. The main focus is on its current, voltage resistance, and switching frequency. We need to choose different components according to different application scenarios.
