High Performance Silicon Carbide Power Block for Industry Applications.

Silicone carbide (SiC) power devices have been optimized in performance over the past decade. However, wide industry adoption of SiC technology still faces challenges from system design perspective. This paper demonstrates an integrated air-cooled three-phase SiC power block for industry applications. The key design aspects, such as high performance gate driver, low parasitic layout, optimized thermal management, as well as flexible control platform are addressed. Experimental results are provided to demonstrate the superior performance of the design. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
