INSULATED GATE BIPOLAR TRANSISTOR

PD-95640
IRG4BC20W
INSULATED GATE BIPOLAR TRANSISTOR
Features
• Designed expressly for Switch-Mode Power
Supply and PFC (power factor correction)
applications
• Industry-benchmark switching losses improve
efficiency of all power supply topologies
• 50% reduction of Eoff parameter
• Low IGBT conduction losses
• Latest-generation IGBT design and construction offers
tighter parameters distribution, exceptional reliability
• Lead-Free
Benefits
• Lower switching losses allow more cost-effective
operation than power MOSFETs up to 150 kHz
("hard switched" mode)
• Of particular benefit to single-ended converters and
boost PFC topologies 150W and higher
• Low conduction losses and minimal minority-carrier
recombination make these an excellent option for
resonant mode switching as well (up to >>300 kHz)
