Dynamic Characterization Evaluation Tool Optimized for the Wolfspeed WolfPACK™ Six-Pack Platform

KIT-CRD-CIL12N-FMC

Wolfspeed’s KIT-CRD-CIL12N-FMC is a dynamic characterization tool that can be used to evaluate and optimize switching performance of Wolfspeed’s WolfPACK™ FM3 Silicon Carbide (SiC) six-pack (three phase) power modules. A clamped inductive load (CIL) test circuit with current measurement provides a high speed; low inductance test fixture for double pulse testing. This test fixture in conjuction with a choice of gate driver boards options allows measurement of:

Timing (T_Delay-On; T_Delay-Off; T_Rise; T_Fall)
Overshoot (V_DS-Max; I_D-Max)
Speed (di/dt; dv/dt)
Switching Loss (E_ON; E_OFF; E_RR)

Specifications

Optimized for Wolfspeed’s WolfPack Silicon Carbide six-pack power modules
DC bus voltage up to 1000V
On Board 200uF Bulk Capacitor and High Frequency Film Capacitor Bank
