    INSTRUCTOR Dr. Khurram Hussain, Dr. Khizer Mehmood DEADLINE 11-11-2022

    Question No. 1 (2.5) (C2) CLO-1 PLO-1


    Following are the main tradeoffs in silicon-based power devices:

    a) Increasing breakdown voltage results in an increase of ON-state losses.


    b) Reducing ON-state losses results in increasing Switching times.
    Discuss, keeping IGBT in mind, how these tradeoffs affect device performance and characteristics.

    Question No. 2 (2.5) (C2) CLO-1 PLO-1


    Discuss which device constructional features may affect following device parameters of a power device:

    1. Breakdown Voltage
    2. Low ON State Voltage
    3. FAST Switching Time
