Abstract

The new CoolMOS C3 generation combines extremely high on-state conductivity with ultra fast switching speed at full pulse current capability. In many applications the outstanding switching performance of the CoolMOS can´t be utilized due to the dynamic behaviour of the diode. For this reason a whole family of SiC-diodes have been developed to get the ideal matched pair of switch and ultra fast diodes. The goal of ultra low loss applications in SMPS, power factor correction circuits and motor control units is achieved completely
