In the world of power electronics, bigger is better. This is especially true in high-voltage power systems, where designers strive to improve semiconductor technology to meet customer demand for smaller, lighter, more reliable, efficient, and less expensive converters. Silicon MOSFETs and IGBTs require trade-offs; for example, you have to choose between the most reliable design and the most efficient design, but not both.
