Hello Friends,
I am a PCB Designer Engineer, part of Hardware design which as IGBT (TO package) used, For testing purpose we applied 15V at Gate and Emitter by just connecting the IGBT with wires, Ig shows 20nA, 1uA p-p which is normal, but with same input connected on Bare PCB we Ig10uA and 250uA P-P, we are using FR4 PCB material (IPC class 2), TG 180, Can anyone explain the reason for this leakage current when connecting IGBT mounted on Bare PCB?
