What is LTP 75N08 component ? Why its used in inverter circuits ?

Kindly, provide me the link of its datasheet ......

thanks
 

do we always use power MOSFETS for only switching purposes ?

To switch what ?

thanks
 

Other components can also be used but MOSFETs are close to being perfect switches, when off they conduct very little and when on they only drop a tiny voltage. Consider a switch passing 75A, if it's resistance was only 0.1 Ohms it would still drop 7.5V and lose over 500W of energy as heat. The resistance of a fully conducting MOSFET is very much smaller than that so less heat and more efficiency is possible.

would you name those other components ?

Also, how to connect a power Mosfet whether N-channel or P-Channel (both) to make it a switch ?

thanks
 
Other components usable as power switches in inverters are bipolar transistors, SCRs and IGBTs.

To make a MOSFET work as a switch you have to control the voltage between the gate and source pins. Exactly how you do this depends entirely on the remaining circuit configuration.
