APTGL90SK120T1G

IGBTs (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistors) are special semiconductor devices, designed to join the benefits of a MOSFET (Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor) and a BJT (Bipolar Junction Transistor). IGBT Modules are a customized configuration of individual IGBT power elements combined with other active and passive components, usually embedded in a base plate, which are intended to satisfy a specific application and requirements. APTGL90SK120T1G is an IGBT Module from Advanced Power Technology, specifically designed for high power switching applications.

Working Principle

IGBTs work in combination with two transistors, a PNP (forward transistor) and an NPN (reverse transistor) type. Like BJTs, the two transistors are insulated from each other. The two transistors are connected parallel and act like a single transistor with the NPN form the emitter side and the PNP from the collector side. The gate of the IGBT is connected to the emitter side of the PNP transistor, and therefore, when the gate voltage is applied, the current can pass through the PNP transistor, enabling the IGBT to be on.
