SIC MOSFET for the Next Generation of Electric Vehicles
The global EV sector is growing by the day. But with growth come evolving consumer demands and the need to handle the dynamicity of the market. Globally, EV makers are adopting 800-V drive systems to increase vehicle efficiency, ensure rapid charging and augment the distance range of vehicles. SiC MOSFETs are precisely helping EV makers around the globe graduate to these next-gen objectives and in power devices for EV powertrains. They have become a crucial element of EVs. Their use extends to various areas like onboard chargers, traction inverters, etc. Let’s delve a bit more into the advantages of SiC MOSFETs, especially given next-gen demands. SiC MOSFET Advantages Over Conventional Silicon Devices and Silicon IGBTs: Silicon devices might have ruled the EV horizon for quite some time. But SiC MOSFETs are slated to dethrone them. Of course, the reasons are valid. Some areas wherein SiC MOSFETs have the upper hand include voltage, frequency, and switching capabilities. L...
