How do the conduction losses of an IGBT compare with those of a MOSFET?

Correct answer D. Lower than that of MOSFET

Explanation

An IGBT's bipolar output injects minority carriers that modulate the drift region's conductivity, so at high voltage it has a lower on-state drop and lower conduction losses than a MOSFET.
