How to Tackle the Challenges of Migrating an IGBT Based Drive Inverter to SiC MOSFETs

Presented by Toshiba Corporation
Field Level (1)

Using IGBT in Inverter Application is common practice since many years. All of these solutions have the disadvantage that the resulting systems are quite heavy and big and are getting hot during operation under load. To overcome these issues a replacement of the IGBTs by SiC MOSFETs is a proper solution.

During the presentation the benefits of SiC MOSFETs in contrast to IGBTs and their influence on the design and implementation of an inverter will be explained using a ready to use inverter as example.
