IGBT selection for motor control


OliviaSmith

Hi,

I have to control speed & direction of dc motor in an embedded project, so I can't use any ready made modules so we have to design it using PIC16F877a, I am done with its programming but I am stuck at h-bridge as I don't know what should I use here.

I first had a look at FET & MOSFET but finally landed on IGBT. I think IGBT is best for this application as they are fast switching ICs and I want to control speed so I have to use PWM.

So, can anyone suggest me some easily available and low cost IGBT IC? The one I have found out are not available in my local market.

Thanks in advance.
