Power Master Semiconductor has released 2nd generation of the 1200V eSiC MOSFET to meet the requirements of higher efficiency, high power density, robust reliability, and ruggedness in various applications such as DC EV charging stations, solar inverters, energy storage systems (ESS), motor drives and industrial power supplies. 1200V eSiC MOSFETs offer significant system advantages such as higher power density, efficiency and less cooling effort due to its much lower power losses.

Therefore, SiC MOSFETs are gaining popularity especially for renewable energy systems, EV charging systems that required higher power density, efficiency and robustness. DC EV charging station is level-3 charger and its power level is increasing by modular configuration as demand of faster charging time and higher battery capacity of EV. DC EV charging provides a mostly constant current output for wide DC output voltage range (200V to 900V) and load profile. 

The new generation of 1200V eSiC MOSFET, Gen2 improved key FOM characteristics such as gate charge (QG), stored energy in output capacitance (EOSS), reverse recovery charger (QRR) and output charge (QOSS) by up to 30% compared to previous generation. This new generation SiC MOSFET technology offers significant system advantages such as smaller, lighter, higher efficiency, and less cooling effort thanks to its much lower power losses in various power conversion applications. 

1200V eSiC MOSFET Gen2 offer excellent switching performance and 100% tested avalanche capability. It achieved 44% lower switching loss compared to the previous generation by extremely low miller capacitance (QGD). 

Power Master Semiconductor is steadfastly committed to developing cutting-edge power device solutions that prioritize efficiency and sustainability,” said Namjin Kim, Sr. Director Sales & Marketing. “The introduction of our new generation of 1200V eSiC MOSFET marks a substantial leap forward in facilitating the development of cleaner, more efficient power systems. We are confident that the 1200V eSiC Gen2 MOSFET will play a transformative role in high-performance applications.
