SiC Merged PiN and Schottky (MPS) Power Diodes Electrothermal Modeling in SPICE
Abstract—This paper sets out a behavioral macro-model of a Merged PiN and Schottky (MPS) diode based on silicon carbide (SiC). This model holds good for both static and dynamic electrothermal simulations for industrial applications. Its parameters have been worked out from datasheets curves by drawing on the optimization method: Simulated Annealing (SA) for the SiC MPS diodes made available in ...

Rev. Introduction Since the introduction of commercial silicon carbide (SiC) Schottky diodes over 10 years ago, significant improvements in power factor correction (PFC) circuits and motor drives have been realized due to the elimination of minority carrier reverse recovery charge and its resulting switching loss associated with traditional PiN diodes. The early adoption of SiC Schottky diodes ...
متن کاملA New, High-Voltage 4H-SiC Lateral Dual Sidewall Schottky (LDSS) Rectifier: Theoretical Investigation and Analysis
In this paper, we report a new 4 H-silicon carbide (SiC) lateral dual sidewall Schottky (LDSS) rectifier on a highly doped drift layer consisting of a high-barrier sidewall Schottky contact on top of the low-barrier Schottky contact. Using twodimensional (2-D) device simulation, the performance of the proposed device has been evaluated in detail by comparing its characteristics with those of th...
