It is ideally suited for solar inverter, switch-mode power supply, high-voltage DC/DC converter, and motor drive applications.
According to Cree, additional key features of the new SiC MOSFET include: continuous drain current (ID); 60A (@ 25ºC); 40A (@ 100ºC); high-speed switching with low capacitances; high blocking voltage with low RDS(on); easy to parallel and simple to drive; and resistant to latch-up
