Abstract

Arkansas Power Electronics International, Inc., in collaboration with the University of Arkansas and Rohm, Ltd., have developed a high-temperature, high-performance Silicon-Carbide (SiC) based power module with integrated gate driver. This paper presents a description of the single phase half-bridge module containing eight Rohm 30 A SiC DMOSFETs in parallel per switch position. The electrical and thermal performance of the system under power is also presented.
