Growing concerns about energy efficiency have led to the development of electronics with higher power density. In grid-connected and industrial applications, such as AC motor control, uninterruptible ...

High-voltage silicon-carbide (SiC) MOSFETs and diodes combine the advantages of fast switching speeds and very low switching losses. This allows power converters designed with them to operate at ...

Most circuit designers are familiar with diode dynamic characteristics, such as charge storage, voltage-dependent capacitance, and reverse recovery time. Manufacturers less commonly acknowledge and ...
