IGBT Loss Characteristics

This example shows how to use Simscape™ Electrical™ detailed switching device models to create tabulated switching loss data. This tabulated data can then be used with the piecewise linear switching device component models to predict total losses in system models configured for fast and/or fixed-step simulation.
