This paper describes IGBT and FWD design concept and measured results for the application of magnetic energy recovery switch (MERS) configuration for the first time. Since the switching frequency in the MERS application is so slow of 50-60 Hz that a lower on-state voltage drop is strongly required for the IGBT and FWD chips even though their fast switching features are sacrificed. Therefor e, the...
