In a solar inverter, Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistors (IGBTs) are known as excellent solutions for converting a DC voltage generated from the solar array panels to AC voltage. The resulting AC voltage is used to power AC loads or various electrical equipment, or as in the case of a Photovoltaic (PV) inverter, to be fed into an AC grid.
A solar inverter is a challenging application with conflicting demands of high performance, eficiency, and device robustness that can be best satisfied with the latest generation of TGFS high-conductivity IGBTs.
