Description of IGBT Switching Behaviour in
typical welding application: turn-on
 Zero Current in turn-on.

Turn-on is performed at Zero current in HB, FB and TTF.

With ZCS is possible to strongly reduce switching losses

Smaller heatsinks or higher efficiency can be achieved
― Green, Ic @ 2,5A/div
― Brown: Vge @ 2,5V/div
― Blue: Vce @ 100V/div
― t=0.5µs/div


Excellent switching losses, but when used in layouts with
large stray inductance:
―High Voltage peaks during switching off may happen
―Oscillations on gate and collector are possible
―Challenges with EMI
