Power semiconductors employed in power management systems include power switches, and rectifiers (diodes). Power switches include MOSFETs, IGBTs, and BJTs (bipolar junction transistors). Rectifiers are used primarily to convert ac to dc and also to impede the flow of current in their reverse direction.
