Nexperia introduces a range of highly efficient and robust industrial grade 1200 V silicon carbide (SiC) MOSFETs with industry leading temperature stability in innovative surface-mount (SMD) top-side cooled packaging technology called X.PAK. This package, with its compact form factor of 14 mm x 18.5 mm, combines the assembly benefits of SMD with the cooling efficiency of through-hole technology, ensuring optimal heat dissipation.
This release addresses the growing demand from a broad range of high power (industrial) applications for discrete SiC MOSFETs that harness the advantages of top-side cooling to deliver exceptional thermal performance. These switches are ideal for industrial applications such as battery energy storage systems (BESS), photovoltaic inverters, motor drives, and uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS). Additionally, they are well-suited for electric vehicle charging infrastructure, including charge piles.
The X.PAK package further enhances the thermal performance of Nexperia’s SiC MOSFETs by reducing the negative impacts of heat dissipation via the PCB. Furthermore, Nexperia’s X.PAK package enables low inductance for surface mount components and supports automated board assembly.
The new X.PAK packaged devices deliver class-leading figures-of-merit (FoM) known from Nexperia SiC MOSFETs, with RDS(on) being a particularly critical parameter due to its impact on conduction power losses. However, many manufacturers concentrate on the nominal value of this parameter and neglect the fact that it can increase by more than 100% as device operating temperatures rise, resulting in significant conduction losses. Nexperia SiC MOSFETs, on the other hand, offer industry-leading temperature stability, with the nominal value of RDS(on) increasing by only 38% over an operating temperature range from 25 °C to 175 °C.
“The introduction of our SiC MOSFETs in X.PAK packaging marks a significant advancement in thermal management and power density for high-power applications,” said Katrin Feurle, Senior Director and Head of SiC Discretes & Modules at Nexperia. “This new top-side cooled product option builds on our successful launches of discrete SiC MOSFETs in TO-247 and SMD D2PAK-7 packages. It underscores Nexperia’s commitment to providing our customers with the most advanced and flexible portfolio to meet their evolving design needs.”

Navitas Semiconductor has announced that its portfolio of 3.2kW, 4.5kW, and 8.5 kW AI data center power supply unit (PSU) designs exceed the new 80 PLUS ‘Ruby’ certification, focused on the highest level of efficiency for redundant server data center PSUs.
The 80 PLUS certification program assesses and certifies the energy efficiency of internal PSUs in computers and servers. The ‘Ruby’ certification was announced in January 2025 by 80 PLUS’s administrating body, CLEAResult, following its endorsement by the Green Grid consortium.
‘Ruby’ is the most rigorous PSU efficiency standard since the ‘Titanium’ certification was released 14 years ago. In comparison, Ruby sets an additional 1% system efficiency across all load conditions, except at 50% load (which requires a 0.5% increase), to achieve a new benchmark of 96.5% efficiency.
This new standard offers the industry a clear path to enhanced energy efficiency, helping data centers address the evolving needs of cloud storage, commercial sectors, and the increasing pressure on the grid from AI computing. For example, every Ruby-certified 3.2 kW CRPS185 PSU can save up to 420 kilowatt-hours during a 3-year lifetime. That is the equivalent of over 400 kg of CO2 emissions.
Navitas exceeds both Ruby and Titanium certifications on their portfolio of AI data center PSU reference designs, ranging from 3.2 kW to 8.5 kW, and are powered by high-power GaNSafe™ ICs and GeneSiC™ Gen 3 ‘Fast’ SiC MOSFETs.
Navitas is the established leader in AI data center solutions enabled by GaN and SiC technology. In August 2023, they introduced a high-speed, high-efficiency 3.2 kW CRPS, achieving a 40% smaller size than best-in-class, legacy silicon solutions for power-hungry AI and Edge computing. This was followed by the world’s highest power density 4.5 kW CRPS, achieving a ground-breaking 137 W/in3, and efficiency of over 97%.
In November 2024, Navitas released the world’s first 8.5 kW AI data center power supply powered by GaN and SiC that could meet 98% efficiency, complying with the Open Compute Project (OCP) and Open Rack v3 (ORv3) specifications. Additionally, Navitas created IntelliWeave, an innovative patented new digital control technique, that when combined with high-power GaNSafe and Gen 3-Fast SiC MOSFETs, enables PFC peak efficiencies to 99.3% and reduces power losses by 30% reduction compared to existing solutions.
“Compared with Titanium, Ruby cuts the allowable PSU losses significantly and will be critical in enabling the data center industry to reduce its carbon footprint and cut operational costs,” said Gene Sheridan, CEO and co-founder of Navitas. “With the industry set to consume 1,000 TWh annually by next year1, every percentage point improvement in efficiency represents a reduction of 10 TWh, or approximately 3.5 million tons of CO22. Advances in our GaNFast and GeneSiC products enable these targets to be met and significantly exceeded.”
Navitas’ AI Power Roadmap and 80 PLUS Ruby-compliant demos can be viewed at the ‘Planet Navitas’ booth #1107 during the APEC 2025 conference, which takes place at Atlanta’s Georgia World Congress Center from March 16 to 20.

NoMIS Power has announced a major breakthrough in improving the short-circuit withstand time (SCWT) of SiC MOSFETs. This innovation addresses one of the key challenges limiting the widespread adoption of SiC technology in high-power applications.
Silicon carbide (SiC) devices have gained prominence in power electronics due to their high efficiency, fast switching, and superior thermal performance. However, their historically lower short-circuit robustness compared to silicon-based IGBTs has posed challenges for their use in high-voltage and high-reliability environments, such as industrial drives, electric vehicles, and grid applications. NoMIS Power’s latest advancement significantly extends the SCWT of SiC MOSFETs to a minimum of 5 µs (Fig. 1), compared to the current industry standard of 2-3 µs, with no deleterious effect on specific on-resistance (Ron,sp) (Fig. 2). This enhancement greatly improves reliability and unlocks new opportunities for system designers seeking to maximize performance while maintaining fault tolerance.
Figure 1: Drain currents of the NoMIS Power SiC MOSFET and NoMIS Power SiC MOSFET with long SCWT under short-circuit conditions right before failure. Drain currents of the 1.2 kV, 80 mΩ SiC MOSFET (dark blue) and the long SCWT 1.2 kV, 80 mΩ SiC MOSFET (light blue) from NoMIS Power are compared. The measurement for short-circuit was conducted under the following conditions: Rg of 20 Ω, Vgs of 20 V, and a Vds of 800 V.
By tuning the trade-off between Ron,sp and SCWT using NoMIS Power’s proprietary SiC MOSFET fabrication design and process flow, the performance shown in Fig. 1 & Fig. 2 was achieved; and can be similarly managed depending on the specific application. Complete optimization of SiC MOSFETs with long SCWT using this approach will allow NoMIS Power to further extend the SCWT while maintaining negligible impact on Ron,sp.
Figure 2: Typical output characteristics of NoMIS Power 1.2 kV, 80 mQ SiC MOSFET and NoMIS Power 1.2 kV, 80 mQ SiC MOSFET with long SCWT showing no significant negative impact on on-resistance.
“At NoMIS Power, we have focused extensively on device architecture engineering, leading to a significant advancement in SiC short-circuit withstand time,” said Woongje Sung, CTO at NoMIS Power. “We believe this achievement provides valuable advantages to the power electronics community, helping engineers integrate SiC solutions with greater confidence in applications where robustness is critical.”
NoMIS Power’s long SCWT devices are well-screened for latent defects and offer easier gate driver desaturation (dSat) design for high di/dt and dv/dt, enabling faster switching frequencies of up to hundreds of kHz. Initial test results demonstrate a 2X to 4X increase in short-circuit withstand time compared to existing SiC devices, positioning NoMIS Power’s technology as a frontrunner in the next generation of power semiconductors. Additionally, when coupled with packaging innovations that impact junction-to-case thermal capacitance, alongside novel thermal management techniques with high heat transfer coefficients, the overall SCWT of the SiC MOSFET can be further improved.
The impact of this innovation extends across multiple industries, including renewable energy, electric transportation, and high-power industrial applications. A longer short-circuit withstand time ensures rugged and reliable performance in critical applications, reinforcing the robustness of SiC-based power systems. For example, built-in redundancy of the SiC MOSFETs inside power converters, which impacts costs as well as power density, can be reduced. Furthermore, applications sensitive to electromagnetic inference, that cannot solely rely on digital control and sensing schemes to detect and act upon short-circuit events, will now be able to effectively utilize SiC MOSFETs with lower risk. As SiC adoption accelerates, NoMIS Power’s breakthrough will play a pivotal role in enhancing the reliability and safety of SiC-based power converters and systems.
NoMIS Power is showcasing this breakthrough technology at APEC 2025, March 16-20, Atlanta, GA, Booth 548 along with its expanded range of SiC discretes and power modules.
