Faster switching and enhanced reliability for next-generation power conversion
Wolfspeed 1700 V Silicon Carbide (SiC) MOSFETs enable smaller and more efficient power conversion systems. Compared to silicon-based solutions; Wolfspeed Silicon Carbide technology enables increased system power density; higher switching frequencies; smaller designs; cooler components; reduced size of components like inductors; capacitors; filters & transformers; and overall cost benefits.
Fast intrinsic diode with low reverse recovery (Qrr)
Easy to parallel and simple to drive
Low parasitic inductance
Wide creepage and clearance distance between drain and source
Benefits
Higher system efficiency
Reduced cooling requirements
Increased power density
Increased system switching frequency
Separate Kelvin source pin lowers source inductance and provides up to 30% lower switching losses
Optimized packing with wide creepage and clearance distance between drain and source (~8mm) providing extra electrical isolation suitable for high pollution environments
Applications
Auxiliary power supplies
Switch mode power supplies
Power inverters
1500 V solar inverters
High voltage DC-DC converters
Motor drives
Pulsed power applications
