Join Wolfspeed at the 2023 Applied Power Electronics Conference (APEC)
Wolfspeed is proud to be back at APEC as a platinum sponsor this year.
Demonstrations
We’ll have several demos (listed below) staffed by our Silicon Carbide experts in our booth 1247.
3.6 kW Bridgeless Totem-Pole PFC
This reference design demonstrates the application of Wolfspeed’s C3M™ 650 V Silicon Carbide MOSFET Technology in TOLL (TO – Leadless) Package to create a 3.6kW bridgeless totem-pole PFC for server power supply, data center power supply, mining power supply, and telecom systems.
600 kW XM3 Three-Phase Dual Inverter Using the XM3 Power Module
The 600kW three-phase inverter demonstrates system level power density and efficiency obtained by using six of Wolfspeed’s XM3 half-bridge power modules. With half the weight and volume of a standard 62mm module, the XM3 footprint maximizes power density while minimizing loop inductance for low-loss, high-frequency operation with simple power bussing.
22kW Bi-directional High Efficiency Active Front End (AFE) Converter
Featured in our private meeting room.
This reference design demonstrates the application of Wolfspeed’s 1200V C3M™ Silicon Carbide MOSFETs to create a 22kW three phase bidirectional active front end (AFE) converter for electric vehicle (EV) on-board charger (OBC); off-board fast charging; and other industrial applications such as energy storage systems and three phase PFC power supplies.
SpeedVal Kit™ Modular Evaluation Platform
We’ll also be showcasing our recently released SpeedVal Kit™ Modular Evaluation kit in the booth. Quickly evaluate and optimize the high-speed dynamic switching performance of Wolfspeed Silicon Carbide MOSFETs paired with your choice of a range of gate driver options from our industry-leading partners.
