25094 PWR9: Why Silicon Carbide (SiC), Why Now? (August 2025)
In this class you will explore the advantages of Silicon Carbide (SiC) over traditional silicon in high voltage, high power applications, compare power stage designs and switching losses of SiC MOSFETs, Si MOSFETs, and Si IGBTs through live tests, and learn to use the MPLAB SiC Power Simulator to analyze and implement SiC technology in power stages.
This class is designed for participants with basic knowledge of high voltage, high power applications. Attendees will explore the benefits of Silicon Carbide (SiC) compared to traditional silicon in these applications, gaining insights into the advantages of SiC technology. The class will include a comparison of power stage designs using SiC and silicon, featuring a live test to demonstrate the switching loss differences between a SiC MOSFET, Si MOSFET, and Si IGBT. Additionally, participants will learn to use the MPLAB SiC Power Simulator online tool to analyze power stages incorporating SiC MOSFETs and diodes. This class will equip participants with the knowledge and tools to effectively evaluate and implement SiC technology in high power applications.
Prerequisites:
Basic knowledge of high voltage, high power applications is beneficial.
