IGBT is an Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor. It is a highly efficient, fast power switching, three-terminal semiconductor device.
This device is a combination of the mechanisms In MOSFET and BIPOLAR TRANSISTOR. The IGBT combines the simple gate-drive characteristics of the MOSFETs with the high-current and low-saturation-voltage capability of bipolar transistors using an isolated gate FET for the control input, and a bipolar power transistor as a switch, in a single device. The IGBT is used in medium- to high-power applications such as switched-mode power supply, traction motor control and induction heating.

With controlled power input supported by a Gate fet and quick switching technique of a transistor. IGBT is an electronic appliance finding a wide range of application from air-conditioners, electric trains and cars, refrigerators and stereo with switching amplifiers.

Advanced second and third generation devices:
	Have high capacity to manage overloads
	Exceed the speed of MOSFET
	Prove to be a reasonable replacement for Thyratrons and the like as it generates comparatively large power pulses
	Due to high pulse rating, they are now being viewed as the best alternative High voltage driven devices like SOLID-STATE TESLA COILS AND COIL GUNS
	A wide range of superior quality IGBTs in various models and sizes are available.
	We also deal with bulk orders with definite specifications.
