Abstract;Here was introduced an inverter using SiC commutation gate turn-off thyrister (SICGT). Switching speed of SICGT is faster than that of silicon GTO and is almost equal to that of silicon IBGT, its on-voltage is lower than that of silicon elements at high current density area, and its voltage resistance is almost equal to that of GTO. Here were shown features of a inverter with4 kVA in rating, 2 kHz in switching frequency, and 240 V in output, inversely parallel jointing an SICGT element with a diode.
