  • Abstract
    The SiC - silicon carbide MOSFET has exclusive features thanks its become better switch than Si - silicon semiconductor switch. There are some special features that need to be understood for use to in full devices potential. The advantages and differences of SiC MOSFETs have been described in this article in compare with Si IGBT transistor.
