摘要: This paper describes a SiC-based motor drive technology used to achieve compact power conversion. The static and dynamic characterization of 600 V SiC MOS-enhanced JFETs Schottky free-wheeling diodes (FWDs) designed fabricated at Rockwell Scientific, are performed. loss related voltage current stress the JFET FWD measured compared that state-of-the-art silicon IGBTs PlN FWDs with ratings equal ratings. For same rating (25 A, V), area die making up inverter modules about 60% commercial 25 A IGBT die. total module is reduced by 52.5% Si module. successfully 10 hp motor.
