IRGP4063D1-EPBF Datasheet/PDFIRGP4063D1-EPBF Application Field and Working Principle
The IRGP4063D1-EPBF is an Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) within the "Single" class, produced with 600V Punch Through (PT) technology. IGBTs are widely used both in home appliances and industrial equipment, such as motor drives, welding, soft starters, UPS systems and power inverters.
An IGBT is essentially a non-linear bipolar transistor. It has two independent collector terminals, a single emitter terminal, and a third base terminal, which can be used to create three distinct current paths through the device. IGBTs have become popular because they can be combined with many other power semiconductor technologies, such as MOSFETs and high voltage thyristors, to create efficient, compact and cost-effective power management solutions.
