The 14A IRGS14B40L is more cost-effective in the latest ignition architectures that pair an IGBT with individual coils on each spark plug. The devices, which provide a second source to other zener-clamped ignition IGBTs, are used as a switch that precisely controls the voltage at which the primary side of the ignition coil breaks, resulting in a more precisely controlled secondary voltage for the spark plug.
