Things to look for and avoid when designing with IGBT devices discussed in this app note from Onsemi. Link here (PDF)
This application note describes some of the impacts of the gate-emitter voltage on the IGBT device performance. Unlike the MOSFETs and BJTs, the magnitude of the gate-emitter supply voltage of an IGBT has a more significant impact on the performance of the device. The magnitude of the gate-emitter voltage impacts the turn-on loss and short circuit survival capability of the devices.
