The Role of the IGBT Module in a Photovoltaic Inverter
The Role of IGBTs in PV Inverters IGBTs act as the main switching devices in PV inverters. They are driven by high-speed PWM signals generated by DSP or CPU controllers. As a power device, IGBT plays the role of power conversion and energy transmission in the inverter and is the heart of the inverter. You'll find them in solar panel systems, electric vehicles, welding machines, air conditioners, and industrial motor drives. Load transients or faults can. The right combination of high-side and low-side bridge topology can ensure low power dissipa-tion, high current carrying and gate-control benefits of IGBTs.
