IR Hi-Rel Generation 3 IGBT's

Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistors (IGBTs) from International Rectifier have

higher usable current densities than comparable bipolar transistors, while at

the same time having simpler gate-drive requirements of the familiar power

MOSFET. They provide substantial benefits to a host of high-voltage, high-

current applications.
