Littelfuse offers enhancement-mode N-channel SiC MOSFET, LSIC1MO series
SiC MOSFETs from IXYS: A Littelfuse Technology offer an exceptional alternative to traditional Si-based power transistor devices. The MOSFET device structure enables lower per-cycle switching losses and improved light load efficiency when compared to similarly rated IGBTs. Inherent material properties allow the SiC MOSFET to outclass its Si MOSFET counterparts in blocking voltage, specific on-resistance, and junction capacitances. The robust design of these SiC MOSFETs accommodate a wider range of high-temperature applications. Higher switching frequencies enable smaller passive filter components; lower device losses enable smaller heat sinks. Combined, these features enable improved system efficiency and power density. The devices have smaller die sizes per voltage/current rating making them ideal for motor drive control, power conversion systems, solar inverters, and other applications.
