Abstract
The static and dynamic performance of 600 V, n- and p-channel, vertical insulated-gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs) at temperatures as low as 77 K has been measured and analyzed. Both types of IGBTs demonstrate a better performance at low temperatures in turn-off times and maximum gate controllable current, at the expense of a slightly higher forward drop.<>
