Semiconductor power conversion apparatus

摘要

A power conversion apparatus has a circuit configuration in which a collector voltage of an IGBT is divided. It also has a unit which protects the IGBT against overvoltages applied to the collector by outputting a potential of a voltage dividing point to a gate of the IGBT. A case of a resistor on the high-voltage side of the voltage dividing point is fixed to an emitter potential of the IGBT.
