Gen 4 SiC transistors are 750V for hard and soft switching

UnitedSiC has revealed four 750V silicon carbide power transistors, the first devices from its fourth generation process it unveiled earlier this year. The unusual 750V rating is to allow additional design margin for 400V or 500V battery and bus applications compared with 650V devices, and improvements compared with the company’s third generation means that “gen4 750V ...
