SiC MOSFET reduces EV drive-train inverter losses by 78%
A 900V, 10mΩ MOSFET rated for 196A of continuous drain current at a case temperature of 25°C has been introduced byWolfspeed. This device enables the reduction of EV drive-train inverter losses by 78% based on EPA combined city/highway mileage standards. This efficiency improvement offers designers new options in terms of range, battery usage and vehicle design.
MOSFET-based evaluation board cuts design costs
A new evaluation board from Wolfspeed, a Cree Company is available at Richardson RFPD. The CRD-060DD17P-2 is a demonstration board for a single-end flyback converter design built with Wolfspeed’s commercially-available 1700V SiC MOSFET. The 48W experimental reference design demonstrates how the 1700V SiC MOSFET can reduce total cost and simplify the design of auxiliary power supply.
