MARKET NEWS 7 www.power-mag.com Issue 4 2023 Power Electronics Europe The compact, power dense SiC modules 650V, 20ASiC rectifier module is designed for high frequency power applications ranging from 3.0 to 11kW power stack designs in industrial power supplies, EV charging stations, and on-board chargers. The compact footprint will help to maximise power density, reducing the amount of required board space and lowering the overall system cost, say the partners. Thermal performance is optimised using a combination of top-side cooling (TSC) and an integrated negative temperature coefficient (NTC) sensor which monitors the device temperature and provides real time feedback for device or system level prognosis and diagnosis. The rectifier module has a low inductance package to enable high frequency operation and has been qualified to operate with a junction temperature of up to 175°C. According to Katrin Feurle, Senior Director of the Product Group SiC at Nexperia, the collaboration combines the company’s SiC semiconductors with module packaging for products which offer “exceptionally high levels of power density”. The module is the first step in what is envisaged as a long-term SiC partnership between Nexperia and Kyocera AVX. Nexperia expects samples of the new SiC rectifier modules to be available in Q1 2024. http://www.nexperia.com Nexperia and Kyocera AVX Components collaborate for 650V SiC rectifier module To receive your own copy of subscribe today at: www.power-mag.com Ferraz Shawmut | Eldre | Idealec | FTCAP COOLING AND BUS BAR SOLUTIONS POWER CAPACITOR HIGH SPEED FUSES POWER STACK EVALUATION KIT YOUR NEEDS ARE COVERED EP.MERSEN.COM 10907 MERSEN AP Cooling & Bus bar solutions 86x124 2023.indd 1 2/14/23 8:33 AM
