SiC Solutions for Solar energy

Developments in photovoltaic technology have seen the cost and size of solar cells fall, while efficiency has risen. This puts solar at the forefront of affordable renewable energy. 

Some regions are now legislating the commercial buildings must include some solar energy capture. Initiatives such as this are driving demand for better technology. This is one area where onsemi’s SiC-based boost and inverter Power Integrated Modules (PIMs) are being used.

Silicon carbide solutions from onsemi are helping to increase the efficiency of critical stages in solar energy. This includes single-phase and three-phase inverters that provide DC/DC and DC/AC conversion.
