Both IGBT and super junction MOSFETs come in discrete as well as module forms. Growth of the discrete market is driven by increasing demand for consumer electronic products while modules have found significant uptake in photovoltaic inverters, and electric and hybrid electric vehicles (EV/HEV). Key application areas for IGBT and super junction MOSFETs include uninterrupted power supply (UPS), wind turbines, photovoltaic (PV) inverter, rail traction, consumer applications, electric vehicles/hybrid electric vehicles (EV/HEV), motor drives, industrial applications, converters, adapters and chargers, lighting, and others (servers, telecom and networking devices, etc.).. Super junction MOSFETs have been emerging as a more suitable power semiconductor for, converters, adapters and chargers, lighting, and other (servers, telecom and networking devices, etc.) application areas and are expected to find higher adoption in these segments as compared to IGBT over the coming years. Among all application segments for IGBT and super junction MOSFETs, industrial application was the single largest segment by revenue in 2012. The industrial application sector has seen high demand for energy efficient power semiconductor products in recent years and this has propelled the uptake of IGBT in this segment.
