Silicon carbide (SiC) power MOSFET product line from Microsemi increase your performance over
silicon MOSFET and silicon IGBT solutions while lowering your total cost of ownership for high-voltage
applications.
SiC MOSFET Features:
• Low capacitances and low gate charge
• Fast switching speed due to low internal
gate resistance (ESR)
• Stable operation at high junction
temperature, Tj(max) = +175C
• Fast and reliable body diode
• Superior avalanche ruggedness
SiC MOSFET Benets:
• Higheciencytoenablelighter/compact
system
• Simple to drive and easy to parallel
• Improved thermal capabilities and lower
switching losses
• Eliminates the need of external Free
Wheeling Diode
• Lower system cost of ownership
Applications:
• PV inverter, converter and industrial motor
drives
• Smart grid transmission & distribution
• Induction heating, and welding
• H/EV powertrain and EV charger
• Power supply and distribution
