The IXGA12N100 is a part of the IXGH family of IGBTs, single transistors produced by Infineon. It is a high voltage and high speed insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT). In terms of application and working principle, these transistors are highly versatile and serve a wide range of purposes.

First and foremost, the IXGA12N100 is ideal for use in motor drives, being specifically designed for use in medium to large motor drives. This is due to its exceptional fast switching operations, aided by its integrated soft-freewheeling diode for improved system efficiency. This transistor is also suitable for switched-mode power supplies and high frequency resonant converters, power switching of incandescent and fluorescent lighting, appliances, and a variety of drives, as well as AC-DC and DC-DC power converters.

In terms of its principles of operation, the IXGA12N100 IGBT functions similarly to a conventional MOSFET while retaining its superior transfer characteristics. This like a MOSFET, the IGBT has a p-type MOS gate that regulates the current flow in the base emitter junction through regulation of the polarisation of the gate. This has the effect of allowing the IGBT to switch in both directions, allowing it to be used in a variety of AC and DC applications requiring switching. Additionally, the device provides good thermal performance thanks to a low on-state voltage drop.

Furthermore, when this particular IGBT is operated at a high frequency, it is capable of developing high levels of gate current gain and gate-source voltage. This makes it suitable for a variety of application fields where high frequency switching is required, as it can provide superior transfer characteristics as compared to conventional MOSFETs. Additionally, due to its integrated soft-freewheeling diode, the power dissipation during operation is low, making it suitable for many motor drive applications.

In conclusion, the IXGA12N100 IGBT is ideal for use in motor drives, switched-mode power supplies and high frequency resonant converters, power switching of incandescent and fluorescent lighting, appliances, and a variety of drives, as well as AC-DC and DC-DC power converters. Additionally, the IGBT can be operated at high frequencies, providing superior transfer characteristics as compared to conventional MOSFETs. All of these factors make the IXGA12N100 an ideal choice for a wide range of applications.
