Wolfspeed presenting SiC power device portfolio at PCIM

Wolfspeed of Research Triangle Park, NC, USA — a Cree Company that makes silicon carbide (SiC) power products including MOSFETs, Schottky diodes, and modules — will showcase its latest SiC power devices at PCIM (Power Conversion Intelligent Motion) Europe 2016 in Nuremberg, Germany (10-12 May).

Participating with its distribution partner MeV (in Hall 9, Stand 242), one of Wolfspeed's products on display will be a next-generation, high-performance 62mm half-bridge all-SiC power module and gate driver combination with three-phase evaluation kit. Another is the SpeedFit tool, Wolfspeed's new complimentary online simulation tool that allows power electronics design engineers to model, simulate and evaluate the performance of SiC-based power circuits.

In addition, Wolfspeed will highlight two examples of the smaller, cooler and more efficient 20kW DC-DC converters made possible through the design, circuit and performance improvements, and overall system savings of SiC power devices and modules, and will showcase the continued expansion of its industry-first 900V SiC MOSFET platform.

"As the wide-bandgap power semiconductor market continues to expand, we're going to be launching more devices that are designed and developed specifically to optimize SiC's inherent performance advantages," says Guy Moxey, senior director of power products.

During the PCIM conference, Wolfspeed will give the following presentations: 

• on 10 May (11am), business development & program manager Jeffrey Casady will present a paper 'Ultra-low (1.25µΩ) On-Resistance 900V SiC 62mm Half-Bridge Power Modules Using New 10mΩ SiC MOSFETs' in the Brüssel Room;
• on 11 May (10am), director of business development Dr Ty McNutt will take part in a Power Electronics Market Briefing hosted by Yolé Développement in the Industry Forum Area (Hall 6 – 248);
• on 11 May (noon), chief technology officer Dr John Palmour will present 'SiC Volume, Production & Cost' as part of the Bodo's Power System Forum in the Industry Forum Area (Hall 6 – 248);
• on 11 May (3.30pm), technical marketing manager Dr Marcelo Schupbach will present 'A Digital Predictive Constant Frequency Controller For High Frequency 3-Phase Silicon Carbide PFC Rectifier' at the Foyer Entrance NCC Mitte; and
• on 12 May (10am), product marketing engineer Edgar Ayerbe will present 'Wolfspeed 900V MOSFETs for Fast Battery Charger Applications' as part of the PCIM Vendor Sessions (Hall 7 – 260).
