SiC MOSFETs: Gate Drive Optimization
Download now
For high−voltage switching power applications, silicon carbide or SiC MOSFETs bring notable advantages compared to traditional silicon MOSFETs and IGBTs. Switching high−voltage power rails in excess of 1,000 V, operating at hundreds of kHz is non−trivial and beyond the capabilities of even the best superjunction silicon MOSFETs.  This paper highlights the unique device characteristics associated with SiC MOSFETs. Critical design requirements related to optimal gate−drive design for maximizing SiC switching performance will be described. System level considerations such as start−up, fault protection and steady state switching will also be discussed.
