Power Transistors and GTO Thyristors (91026)
The Power Transistors and GTO Thyristors course provides comprehensive hands-on training in the terminology, principles, and applications of self-commutated switching devices used in power electronics.
In this course, students learn the basic operation and switching characteristics of the MOSFET, isolated-gate bipolar transistor (IGBT), fast IGBT, bipolar transistor, Darlington transistor, and GTO thyristor.
Students also learn how to match a free-wheeling diode with each of these self-commutated switching devices.
The students may take the course using the Windows™-based Tech-Lab® FACET® System (network or stand-alone) or the non-computer FACET System.
