Abstract |
The superior properties of Silicon Carbide (SiC) power devices compared to Silicon (Si) power
devices are expected to have a significant impact on the next-generation power electronics systems.
Some of these benefits include a large reduction in the size, weight, and cost of the power
conditioning and/or thermal systems and passive components. In this paper, Si and SiC diode models
will be derived and used in a dc-dc converter suitable for automotive applications, and the
aforementioned benefits will be demonstrated. |
