IGBT technology
IGBTs are capable of achieving the lowest possible switching losses due to their fast switching of electric currents. They combine the advantages of high current-carrying capabilities and high blocking voltages of a bipolar transistor with the capacitive, almost zero-power control. IGBTs can withstand very high voltages and are currently the dominant technology in applications where voltages exceed 600 V.
An IGBT does not inherently contain a freewheeling, or body diode by design. This diode, however, is necessary to protect the switch by providing a freewheeling path to prevent reverse current.
