摘要
This paper focuses on the most recent technical developments in Integrated Gate Commutated Thyristors. Improved Safe Operating Area (SOA) of a new IGCT chip set based on ABB's High Power Technology (HPT) platform with a rated voltage of 10kV is presented. A matching 10kV freewheeling diode is also reported. Combined, these developments open the door to new applications of silicon IGCTs reaching voltage levels of 7.2kV RMS or more.
