Exhibit 10.2

INDEMNITY AGREEMENT

This Agreement is made and entered into this 25th day of August, 2006 by and
between IXYS Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Corporation”), and David L.
Millstein (“Agent”).

Recitals

Whereas, Agent performs a valuable service to the Corporation in his capacity as a
director of the Corporation;

Whereas, the stockholders of the Corporation have adopted bylaws (the “Bylaws”)
providing for the indemnification of the directors, officers, employees and other agents of the
Corporation, including persons serving at the request of the Corporation in such capacities with
other corporations or enterprises, as authorized by the Delaware General Corporation Law, as
amended (the “Code”);

Whereas, the Bylaws and the Code, by their non-exclusive nature, permit contracts
between the Corporation and its agents, officers, employees and other agents with respect to
indemnification of such persons; and

Whereas, in order to induce Agent to continue to serve as a director of the
Corporation, the Corporation has determined and agreed to enter into this Agreement with Agent;

Now, Therefore, in consideration of Agent’s continued service as a director after the
date hereof, the parties hereto agree as follows:

Agreement

1. Services to the Corporation. Agent will serve, at the will of the Corporation or under
separate contract, if any such contract exists, as a director of the Corporation or as a director,
officer or other fiduciary of an affiliate of the Corporation (including any employee benefit plan
of the Corporation) faithfully and to the best of his ability so long as he is duly elected and
qualified in accordance with the provisions of the Bylaws or other applicable charter documents of
the Corporation or such affiliate; provided, however, that Agent may at any time and for any reason
resign from such position (subject to any contractual obligation that Agent may have assumed apart
from this Agreement) and that the Corporation or any affiliate shall have no obligation under this
Agreement to continue Agent in any such position.

2. Indemnity of Agent. The Corporation hereby agrees to hold harmless and indemnify Agent to
the fullest extent authorized or permitted by the provisions of the Bylaws and the Code, as the
same may be amended from time to time (but, only to the extent that such amendment permits the
Corporation to provide broader indemnification rights than the Bylaws or the Code permitted prior
to adoption of such amendment).

3. Additional Indemnity. In addition to and not in limitation of the indemnification
otherwise provided for herein, and subject only to the exclusions set forth in Section 4 hereof,
the Corporation hereby further agrees to hold harmless and indemnify Agent:

(a) against any and all expenses (including attorneys’ fees), witness fees, damages,
judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement and any other amounts that Agent becomes legally
obligated to pay because of any claim or claims made against or by him in connection with any
threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal,
arbitrational, administrative or investigative (including an action by or in the right of the
Corporation) to which Agent is, was or at any time becomes a party, or is threatened to be made a
party, by reason of the fact that Agent is, was or at any time becomes a director, officer,
employee or other agent of Corporation, or is or was serving or at any time serves at the request
of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or other agent of another corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise; and

(b) otherwise to the fullest extent as may be provided to Agent by the Corporation under the
non-exclusivity provisions of the Code and Section 41 of the Bylaws.

4. Limitations on Additional Indemnity. No indemnity pursuant to Section 3 hereof shall be
paid by the Corporation:

(a) on account of any claim against Agent solely for an accounting of profits made from the
purchase or sale by Agent of securities of the Corporation pursuant to the provisions of Section
16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and amendments thereto or similar provisions of any
federal, state or local statutory law;

(b) on account of Agent’s conduct that is established by a final judgment as knowingly
fraudulent or deliberately dishonest or that constituted willful misconduct;

(c) on account of Agent’s conduct that is established by a final judgment as constituting a
breach of Agent’s duty of loyalty to the Corporation or resulting in any personal profit or
advantage to which Agent was not legally entitled;

(d) for which payment is actually made to Agent under a valid and collectible insurance policy
or under a valid and enforceable indemnity clause, bylaw or agreement, except in respect of any
excess beyond payment under such insurance, clause, bylaw or agreement;

(e) if indemnification is not lawful (and, in this respect, both the Corporation and Agent
have been advised that the Securities and Exchange Commission believes that indemnification for
liabilities arising under the federal securities laws is against public policy and is, therefore,
unenforceable and that claims for indemnification should be submitted to appropriate courts for
adjudication); or

(f) in connection with any proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by Agent, or any proceeding
by Agent against the Corporation or its directors, officers, employees or other agents, unless
(i) such indemnification is expressly required to be made by law, (ii) the proceeding was
authorized by the Board of Directors of the Corporation, (iii) such indemnification is provided by
the Corporation, in its sole discretion, pursuant to the powers vested in the Corporation under the
Code, or (iv) the proceeding is initiated pursuant to Section 9 hereof.

5. Continuation of Indemnity. All agreements and obligations of the Corporation contained
herein shall continue during the period Agent is a director, officer, employee or other agent of
the Corporation (or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer,
employee or other agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit
plan or other enterprise) and shall continue thereafter so long as Agent shall be subject to any
possible claim or threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil,
criminal, arbitrational, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that Agent was
serving in the capacity referred to herein.

6. Partial Indemnification. Agent shall be entitled under this Agreement to indemnification
by the Corporation for a portion of the expenses (including attorneys’ fees), witness fees,
damages, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement and any other amounts that Agent becomes
legally obligated to pay in connection with any action, suit or proceeding referred to in Section 3
hereof even if not entitled hereunder to indemnification for the total amount thereof, and the
Corporation shall indemnify Agent for the portion thereof to which Agent is entitled.

7. Notification and Defense of Claim. Not later than thirty (30) days after receipt by Agent
of notice of the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding, Agent will, if a claim in respect
thereof is to be made against the Corporation under this Agreement, notify the Corporation of the
commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the Corporation will not relieve it from any
liability which it may have to Agent otherwise than under this Agreement. With respect to any such
action, suit or proceeding as to which Agent notifies the Corporation of the commencement thereof:

(a) the Corporation will be entitled to participate therein at its own expense;

(b) except as otherwise provided below, the Corporation may, at its option and jointly with
any other indemnifying party similarly notified and electing to assume such defense, assume the
defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to Agent. After notice from the Corporation
to Agent of its election to assume the defense thereof, the Corporation will not be liable to Agent
under this Agreement for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by Agent in connection
with the defense thereof except for reasonable costs of investigation or otherwise as provided
below. Agent shall have the right to employ separate counsel in such action, suit or proceeding
but the fees and expenses of such counsel incurred after notice from the Corporation of its
assumption of the defense thereof shall be at the expense of Agent unless (i) the employment of
counsel by Agent has been authorized by the Corporation, (ii) Agent shall have reasonably
concluded, and so notified the Corporation, that there is an actual conflict of interest between
the Corporation and Agent in the conduct of the defense of such action or (iii) the Corporation
shall not in fact have employed counsel to assume the defense of such action, in each of which
cases the fees and expenses of Agent’s separate counsel shall be at the expense of the Corporation.
The Corporation shall not be entitled to assume the defense of any action, suit or proceeding
brought by or on behalf of the Corporation or as to which Agent shall have made the conclusion
provided for in clause (ii) above; and

(c) the Corporation shall not be liable to indemnify Agent under this Agreement for any
amounts paid in settlement of any action or claim effected without its written consent, which shall
not be unreasonably withheld. The Corporation shall be permitted to settle any action except that
it shall not settle any action or claim in any manner which would impose any penalty or limitation
on Agent without Agent’s written consent, which may be given or withheld in Agent’s sole
discretion.

8. Expenses. The Corporation shall advance, prior to the final disposition of any proceeding,
promptly following request therefor, all expenses incurred by Agent in connection with such
proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of Agent to repay said amounts if it
shall be determined ultimately that Agent is not entitled to be indemnified under the provisions of
this Agreement, the Bylaws, the Code or otherwise.

9. Enforcement. Any right to indemnification or advances granted by this Agreement to Agent
shall be enforceable by or on behalf of Agent in any court of competent jurisdiction if (i) the
claim for indemnification or advances is denied, in whole or in part, or (ii) no disposition of
such claim is made within ninety (90) days of request therefor. Agent, in such enforcement action,
if successful in whole or in part, shall be entitled to be paid also the expense of prosecuting his
claim. It shall be a defense to any action for which a claim for indemnification is made under
Section 3 hereof (other than an action brought to enforce a claim for expenses pursuant to
Section 8 hereof, provided that the required undertaking has been tendered to the Corporation) that
Agent is not entitled to indemnification because of the limitations set forth in Section 4 hereof.
Neither the failure of the Corporation (including its Board of Directors or its stockholders) to
have made a determination prior to the commencement of such enforcement action that indemnification
of Agent is proper in the circumstances, nor an actual determination by the Corporation (including
its Board of Directors or its stockholders) that such indemnification is improper shall be a
defense to the action or create a presumption that Agent is not entitled to indemnification under
this Agreement or otherwise.

10. Subrogation. In the event of payment under this Agreement, the Corporation shall be
subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the rights of recovery of Agent, who shall
execute all documents required and shall do all acts that may be necessary to secure such rights
and to enable the Corporation effectively to bring suit to enforce such rights.

11. Non-Exclusivity of Rights. The rights conferred on Agent by this Agreement shall not be
exclusive of any other right which Agent may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, provision
of the Corporation’s Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, agreement, vote of stockholders or
directors, or otherwise, both as to action in his official capacity and as to action in another
capacity while holding office.

12. Survival of Rights.

(a) The rights conferred on Agent by this Agreement shall continue after Agent has ceased to
be a director, officer, employee or other agent of the Corporation or to serve at the request of
the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or other agent of another corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise and shall inure to the
benefit of Agent’s heirs, executors and administrators.

(b) The Corporation shall require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase,
merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business or assets of the
Corporation, expressly to assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the
same extent that the Corporation would be required to perform if no such succession had taken
place.

13. Separability. Each of the provisions of this Agreement is a separate and distinct
agreement and independent of the others, so that if any provision hereof shall be held to be
invalid for any reason, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the validity or
enforceability of the other provisions hereof. Furthermore, if this Agreement shall be invalidated
in its entirety on any ground, then the Corporation shall nevertheless indemnify Agent to the
fullest extent provided by the Bylaws, the Code or any other applicable law.

14. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be interpreted and enforced in accordance with the
laws of the State of Delaware.

15. Amendment and Termination. No amendment, modification, termination or cancellation of
this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing signed by both parties hereto.

16. Identical Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each
of which shall for all purposes be deemed to be an original but all of which together shall
constitute but one and the same Agreement. Only one such counterpart need be produced to evidence
the existence of this Agreement.

17. Headings. The headings of the sections of this Agreement are inserted for convenience
only and shall not be deemed to constitute part of this Agreement or to affect the construction
hereof.

18. Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other communications hereunder shall be in
writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given (i) upon delivery if delivered by hand to the
party to whom such communication was directed or (ii) upon the third business day after the date on
which such communication was mailed if mailed by certified or registered mail with postage prepaid:

(a) If to Agent, at the address indicated on the signature page hereof.

(b) If to the Corporation, to:

IXYS Corporation

3540 Bassett Street

Santa Clara, CA 95054-2704

or to such other address as may have been furnished to Agent by the Corporation.

In Witness Whereof, the parties hereto have executed this Agreement on and as of the
day and year first above written.

Pursuant to the 2003 Performance Award Plan

July 1, 2007– June 30, 2007

INTRODUCTION

This guide provides a summary of the Executive Bonus Plan for July 1, 2006 – June 30, 2007.

The plan provides a lump-sum cash payment following the completion of fiscal year 2007 for
achievement of annual budgeted operating profit and other goals based on predetermined performance
and award schedules.

PERFORMANCE MEASURES

Plan participants are measured on the degree to which the company achieves its Budgeted Operating
Profit goal during the fiscal year

AWARD DETERMINATION AND SIZE OF AWARDS

The plan operates under a “target award” framework, where participants have a bonus target as a
percentage of base pay, and earn awards based on the degree to which performance goals are
achieved. Target and Maximum awards are:

Award as % of Annual Base Pay

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 
	Target

	 	

	 	

	 	 	 	 	 
	[Insert Target]%

	 	

	 	

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 
	Maximum

	 	

	 	

	 	 	 	 	 
	[Insert Maximum]%

	 	

	 	

Award calculation is based on a percentage of a participant’s annual base salary in effect at the
end of the fiscal year (or, if the participant transfers to another job within the company during
the fiscal year, the end of the participant’s employment in this job, as applicable).

	1.	 	Operating Profit “Gate.” Actual operating profit for the fiscal year must be 90% or more of
budget to achieve a bonus award.

	2.	 	Regulatory Compliance Performance “Gate.” The company must receive an annual average
compliance audit score of “3” or better to achieve a bonus award.

	3.	 	Award Schedules. A plan participant may receive a bonus award for achievement of specific
Operating Profit performance goals measured at the end of the fiscal year, as specified in the
following chart:

	 	•	 	Awards for performance between levels shown are calculated using interpolation
between points.

OTHER INFORMATION

If an employee starts in the position after the start of the fiscal year or leaves the position
before the end of the fiscal year but remains employed by the company, goals and performance will
be based on the full fiscal year, but awards will be pro-rated based on the number of full calendar
months the employee is in the position. Awards are paid within 90 days following the end of the
fiscal year. Plan participants must be employed at the time of award payout to receive an award
payout.

The company reserves the right to suspend, modify or terminate this plan at any time. For example,
the company may reduce, suspend, modify or eliminate the payment of any quarterly bonus earned if
significant regulatory and/or business practices are found to be out of compliance by the company’s
executive management team.

The company also reserves the right to adjust bonus plan performance targets upon the occurrence of
unusual or extraordinary events. Nothing in this document is to be construed to guarantee its
continuation in this or any future years.

The company’s Board of Directors will make the final decision regarding any disputed bonus
computation or award.
