KEMET passive components for SiC applications
Silicon Carbide (SiC) technology has made significant developments recent years, meeting growing demand for dynamic performance, efficiency and power density. From electric vehicle charging and automotive powertrain, to industrial drives and switch mode power supplies, the higher voltages, switching frequencies and operating temperatures of SiC devices greatly benefit modern application design.
Passive components play an essential role in the smooth operation of SiC devices, improving efficiency and power density, however it is critical that they are able to withstand high voltages, high temperatures and have low parasitic losses.
KEMET has developed a range of capacitors and magnetic components specifically to meet the requirements of SiC topologies, offering smaller footprints for more board savings, lower application costs, best-in-class performance and long lifetimes.
Avnet Abacus' Europe-wide team of technical specialists has worked closely with KEMET to bring you the highest level of product and technical support. They are ready to support your SiC projects from concept to prototype to production.
