Avalanche robustness of SiC Schottky diode
Reliability is one of the key issues for the application of Silicon carbide (SiC) diode in high power conversion systems. For instance, in high voltage direct current (HVDC) converters, the devices can be submitted to high voltage transients which yield to avalanche. This paper presents the experimental evaluation of SiC diodes submitted to avalanche, and shows that the energy dissipation in th...

متن کاملSwitching characteristics of SiC JFET and Schottky diode in high-temperature dc-dc power converters
This paper reports on SiC devices operating in a dc-dc buck converter under extremely high ambient temperatures. To this end, the authors packaged SiC JFET and Schottky diodes in thermally stable packages and built a high-temperature inductor. The converter was tested at ambient temperatures up to 400◦C. Although the conduction loss of the SiC JFET increases slightly with increasing temperature...
متن کاملA Study on Hydrogen Reaction Kinetics of Pt/HfO2/SiC Schottky-Diode Hydrogen Sensors
Hydrogen has a wide range of applications and is an essential raw material in many industries such as chemical, food, metallurgical, electronics and others. It can be produced by a variety of methods, including acid and iron methods, steam-reforming production method, coal and electrolysis methods, biological processes, as well as chemical decomposition of hydrogen-containing compounds. Most of...
متن کاملSingle pulse avalanche robustness and repetitive stress ageing of SiC power MOSFETs
This paper presents an extensive electro-thermal characterisation of latest generation Silicon Carbide (SiC) power MOSFETs under Unclamped Inductive Switching (UIS) conditions. Tests are carried out to thoroughly understand the single pulse avalanche ruggedness limits of commercial SiC MOSFETs and assess their ageing under repetitive stress conditions. Both a functional and a structural charact...
