A technical report published in IEEE Transactions on Power Electronics, demonstrated that the switching loss of SiC MOSFET can be completely eliminated under some control strategies.

The study was conducted by Prof. Alex Q. Huang’s group at University of Texas at Austin and Prof. Bo Zhang’s group at University of Electronic Science and Technology of China. They analyzed the switching processes by TCAD simulation and found that the traditional method used to measure switching loss underestimates the turn-on loss and overestimates the turn-off loss due to discharge/charge current for MOSFET output capacitance (Coss) could not be directly measured.

The authors showed that zero switching loss (ZSL) is achieved when utilizing zero-voltage switching (ZVS) turn-on to recover the energy stored in output capacitance (Eoss) and using stronger gate driver and reducing parasitic capacitance to achieve zero turn-off loss (ZTL). With ZSL, the power loss caused by switching will no longer be the frequency limitation of system and this result has been verified in their experiment. In other words, the predominant factor that limits the upper boundary of switching frequency is not switching loss anymore, they are instead other frequency dependent losses such as magnetic core/winding loss, driving loss, and the minimum deadtime required to achieve ZVS.

SiC can Be Extremely Fast

People would think of GaN (gallium nitride) when talking about high frequency or very high frequency switching. However, a study published by scientists from Stanford University showed that SiC can also be extremely fast.The scientists demonstrated that DC-RF efficiency higher than 86% can be realized with a 17MHz class E inverter using SiC MOSFET.

650V Enhancement-mode SiC MOSFET Provides Qoss Almost 1/10 of Advanced Silicon Super-junction MOSFET

Our enhancement-mode SiC MOSFET provides Qoss almost 1/10 of advanced silicon super-junction MOSFET and close to GaN FET. The Rdson@100C is only 10% higher than Rdson@25C, enables better Rdson@100C*Qoss figure-of-merit (FOM) better than GaN. The driving method of our SiC MOSFET is similar to that of silicon power MOSFET and the dV/dt is easily and fully controllable by adjusting external gate resistance (Rg,ext). The much higher avalanche energy (EAS) density (close to 20J/cm2) enables the EAS rating similar to advanced silicon super-junction MOSFET despite with a much smaller chip size.

What is SiC and why is SiC for power devices?

In SiC, because of its 10 times strength to withstand electric field, its theoretical specific on-resistance can be 200 times smaller than Si counterpart, which enables people to use SiC to manufacture high voltage devices with simple structures. Today, unipolar SiC power devices, including SiC MOSFETs and SiC Schottky rectifiers, have been commercialized for voltage rating up to 3300V, which is unreachable by any other semiconductor materials.

SiC is quickly taking the market share originally occupied by Si IGBT in electric vehicles

With SiC inverters, it is possible to extend the range of EVs by 6~10% with the same size of battery pack, or maintain the same range with a smaller battery because of its high efficiency and high frequency operation capability. It can be sure that SiC will continue to replace Si in EVs, not just in main inverters, but also on-board chargers (OBC) and DC/DC converters, probably faster than anticipated.
