ROHM’s New 4th Generation SiC MOSFETs Featuring the Industry’s Lowest ON Resistance
To solve these various challenges, designers urgently need SiC power devices capable of providing high withstand voltage with low losses.
- To solve these various challenges, designers urgently need SiC power devices capable of providing high withstand voltage with low losses.
- ROHM, a pioneer in SiC, began mass producing SiC MOSFETs ahead of the industry in 2010.
- For power semiconductors there is often a trade-off relationship between lower ON resistance and short-circuit withstand time, which is required to strike a balance for achieving lower power losses in SiC MOSFETs.
- In addition, significantly reducing the parasitic capacitance (which is a problem during switching) makes it possible to achieve 50% lower switching loss over ourprevious generation of SiC MOSFETs.
