  • Abstract
    A proof-of-concept single-phase silicon carbide (SiC)-based 3 kW inverter multichip power module (MCPM) has been built and tested achieving significant volume reduction (~85% smaller) when compared with similar state-of-the-art Si-based single-phase inverter modules. The SiC-based MCPM was tested from room temperature up to baseplate temperature of 250 degC while delivering over 120 Vrms to the load
