• Easy Drop-in
12V turn-on makes SiC cascode an easy choice for drop-in replacement
• Extra Margin in VGS
SiC cascode has higher margin in VGS design and requires no negative

Cascode for soft switching
• Intrinsic loss mechanisms being
studied for soft switched operation of
cascodes for ultra-high frequency
• This manifests itself as the loss from
ramping the voltage up and down with
zero current.
• SiC Cascodes found to be superior in
a comparative assessment
• Near 0 Cds of JFET eliminates
the capacitive divider problem
• Further refinements in technology
needed to push >1MHz
• Will use logic level MOSFETs with
ultra-low Qg Vth=2V, 5V gate drive
and low inductance surface mount
packaging. This type of operation is
not possible with SiC MOSFET which
needs a wider gate voltage swing with
larger Qg.

Fresh 3φ rectifier designs
▪ Compact, efficient AFE made possible by low RDS(on) with 1200 V rating combined with excellent reverse
conduction and recovery characteristic
▪ Low noise, low charge reverse recovery eliminates the need for bypass and blocking diodes as in Vienna
rectifier with super-junction MOSFETs
▪ Extremely high efficiency is possible, especially with three-level topology, due to very low switching loss
▪ Can use switching algorithm with three-level topology to reduce or eliminate common-mode voltages
