Abstract
The mechanical design of a completely bondless, pressure contact IGBT is discussed and its implications on the electrical characteristics are compared to those of a similarly rated module device. It is determined that the differences in the electrical characteristics of a pressure contact IGBT may offer certain advantages in some applications.
