Modern insulated gate semiconductor switches such as Si- and SiC-MOSFETs and Si-IGBTs are far easier to use than the bipolar junction transistors and GTO (Gate Turn-Off) thyristors of decades past. A primary reason is that they are all controlled by a voltage applied to a control terminal—the gate—that looks likeContinue Reading
