Propelled by Rising Adoption of Electric Vehicles and Renewables – ResearchAndMarkets.com
DUBLIN–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The “Global Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) Market (by IGBT Type, Application, & Region): Insights & Forecast with Potential Impact of COVID-19 (2022-2026)” report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.
The global Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) market is poised for substantial growth, with estimations indicating an increase from USD 8.38 billion in 2023 to a significant figure, progressing at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 10.54% during the forecast period.
An Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) is a bipolar transistor with an insulated gate terminal. These devices excel in high-voltage, high-current applications and operate with a low gate voltage requirement. Combining the advantages of Bipolar Junction Transistors (BJTs) and Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistors (MOSFETs), IGBTs offer benefits such as fast switching speed, zero gate drive current, ease of drive, high pulse current tolerance, high input impedance, and high voltage capabilities, setting them apart from other transistor devices.
The IGBT market is expected to witness significant expansion due to several key factors, including the increasing adoption of Electric Vehicles (EVs), renewable energy generation, rising usage of household appliances, and more.
Segment Analysis:
