  • Abstract
    In this paper, junction temperature behavior of Silicon Carbide (SiC) JFET is investigated both in room temperature and high ambient temperature. The mechanism of thermal runaway of commercially available SiC JFET device is analyzed. The experimental results reveal reduced risk of thermal runaway under high ambient temperature for SiC JFET devices.
