Comparison between BJT, MOSFET, and IGBT

Parameter BJT MOSFET IGBT


Symbol

Type Bipolar Unipolar Hybrid (BJT +


transistor transistor MOSFET)
Control Current- Voltage- Voltage-
Mechanism controlled controlled controlled
(requires base (requires gate (requires gate
current) voltage) voltage)
Switching Slower Fast switching Moderate
Speed switching speed speed switching speed
(moderate)
Conduction High due to Low due to no Lower than BJT,
Losses significant base gate current higher than
current MOSFET
Switching Moderate to Low switching Lower than BJT,
Losses high losses higher than
MOSFET
Voltage Lower voltage Can handle low Can handle high
Handling tolerance (up to to medium voltages (up to
1000V) voltage (up to 1700V)
900V)
Current High current Limited current High current
Handling carrying capacity capacity
