RS Components introduces SiC MOSFETs from ON Semiconductor
1200V MOSFETs from ON Semiconductor are now in stock at RS Components. The N-channel devices are based on silicon carbide (SiC) technology and support accelerated switching speeds (with rise times of as little as 10ns).
The MOSFETs have low RDS(on), down to 20mOhms and gate charge values which are claimed to be industry leading, making them subject to minimal power losses. The robust devices can cope with high current surge pulses and have a dielectric breakdown field strength that is an order of magnitude greater than for equivalent silicon MOSFETs, says RS. The operating temperature range is -55 to +175 degrees C.
The 1200V SiC MOSFET devices are supplied in compact TO247 packages and surface mount D2PAK. They are Pb−free and conform with RoHS environmental directives. They are also 100 per cent UIL tested.
The N-channel SiC MOSFETs are suitable for a range of applications, including uninterruptible power supplies (UPS), electric vehicle charging stations, DC/DC converters, motor control systems, and solar inverters. AEC Qualified variants are available.
The N-channel SiC MOSFETs are shipping now from RS Components in the EMEA and Asia Pacific regions.
