A new 1700V SiC MOSFET from Wolfspeed is available from distributor Richardson RFPD with full design support capabilities.  The C2M1000170J features high blocking voltage with low RDS(on), low parasitic inductance, ultra-low drain gate capacitance, and a separate driver source pin. It is easy to parallel and simple to drive.

The MOSFET offers higher system efficiency, smooth switching waveforms, reduced cooling requirements, and increased system reliability.

It is ideally suited for auxiliary power supplies, switch mode power supplies, and other applications involving high-voltage capacitive loads.

According to Wolfspeed, additional key features of the C2M1000170J include:

  • Drain source voltage (VDSmax): 1700V
  • Continuous drain current (ID) (@ 25 ºC): 5.3A
  • Drain-source on-state resistance (RDS(ON)) (@ 25 ºC): 1.0Ω
  • Package: low impedance, surface mount 7L D2PAK
