IGBT Equivalent Circuit for VGE>VT
+ VCC PNP transistor turns ON, RMOD decreases due to carrier injection from the PNP Emitter. NPN Transistor becomes forward biased at the BE, drawing current from the Base of the PNP transistor. MOS transistor conducts, drawing current from the Base of the PNP transistor. ECE 442 Power Electronics
