  1. Voltage Rating: Off state blocking voltage – exceed and destroy! Current Rating: On (saturation) state maximum – exhibits current limiting, can result in damage if power/ junction temperature rating is exceeded. Switching speed: Maximum rates of change of currents and voltages – determines switching losses On State Voltage: determines On-state losses. Power rating: Maximum internal power dissipation above which junction temperature rises above damage level. Subject to external cooling measures. Power Device Characteristics

  2. Solid State Power Devices • Bipolar Junction Transistors (BJT) • Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) • Metal Oxide-Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor (MOSFET) • Thyristors (SCR, TRIAC) • Integrated-Gate-Controlled Thyristors (IGCT) • Gate Turn-Off Thyristors (GTO) • MOS Controlled Thyristors (MCT) • MOSFET – • High frequency ( > 100 khz) • “Low” Voltage ( < 300 v) • IGBT – • Very High Power (DC applications ~ Megawatts) • Low Frequency ( < 50 kHz) • Thyristors – • (Utility applications 1-2 Megawatts)
