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. There is one characteristic that commercial SiC MOSFETs are superior to GaN HEMTs: the output capacitance (Coss) related loss (Ediss) of SiC MOSFET is independent of switching frequency. In the meantime, the Ediss of GaN HEMTs tends to increase with increasing frequency (due to increased dV/dt) which deteriorates GaN’s performance at very high frequency.

Of course, SiC MOSFET does not come with no shortcomings for high frequency or very high frequency switching operations. SiC MOSFET is a vertical device while GaN HEMT is a lateral device, therefore the input capacitance (Ciss) of SiC MOSFET is inherently higher than that of GaN HEMT. Also, the Rds(on)*Co(eq.) figure-of-merit for today’s commercial SiC MOSFETs is still larger than that of GaN HEMT. However, should the performance of SiC MOSFET be continuously improved, it will not be surprising to see more multi-MHz converters implemented by SiC MOSFETs.

SiC MOSFET驱动电压尖峰分析与抑制（上）

高频、高速开关是碳化硅(SiC) MOSFET的重要优势之一，这能显著提升系统效率，但也会在寄生电感和电容上产生更大的振荡，从而让驱动电压产生更大的尖峰。设计可靠的驱动电路来抑制的驱动电压尖峰，成为发挥SiC MOSFET优势特性的关键课题。为此，我们首先测试复现驱动尖峰波形并分析原因，然后采取相应措施来抑制尖峰。本篇主讲第一部分：驱动电压尖峰复现与分析。

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.

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.

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.

使用SiC MOSFET实现零开关损耗，开关损耗不再是开关频率限制因素

一篇在IEEE学报上发表的电力电子技术报告表明，SiC MOSFET的开关损耗在某种控制策略下可以完全消除。利用零电压开关（ZVS）开通时恢复存储在输出电容中的能量（Eoss），并使用更强的栅级驱动和减少寄生电容，来实现零关断损耗（ZTL），这便做到了零开关损耗（ZSL）。
