Power Savings with all SiC Inverter in Electric Traction applications

Power Savings with all SiC Inverter in Electric Traction applications

The advantage of Silicon Carbide (SiC) based devices are less thermal management requirements and smaller passive components which result in higher power density. SiC devices have higher blocking voltages, lower on-state resistance and switching losses and higher thermal conductivity and operating t...
