Travel further with less electricity SiC power devices have long been considered a perfect fit to electric vehicles (EVs). Toyota is the first to start road trials using SiC MOSFETs to drive traction motor in 2015.

What is SiC and why is SiC for power devices

By |2020-06-29T09:59:29+08:00June 16th, 2020|about SiC|

Rugged and High Efficiency Silicon carbide (SiC) is a compound semiconductor material with the energy bandgap of 3.2eV. The wide bandgap of SiC enables it to withstand roughly 10 times of electric field compared to conventional Silicon semiconductor (bandgap = 1.1eV). The power devices are used to regulate the electric power (current and voltage). Ideally,
