Abstract

We address the two critical challenges that currently limit the applicability of SiC MOSFETs in commercial power conversion systems: high-temperature gate oxide reliability and high total current rating. We demonstrate SiC MOSFETs with predicted gate oxide reliability of >106 hours (100 years) operating at a gate oxide electric field of 4 MV/cm at 250°C. To scale to high total currents, we develop the Power Overlay planar packaging technique to demonstrate SiC MOSFET power modules with total on-resistance as low as 7.5 m. We scale single die SiC MOSFETs to high currents, demonstrating a large area SiC MOSFET (4.5mm x 4.5 mm) with a total on-resistance of 30 m, specific on-resistance of 5 m-cm2 and blocking voltage of 1400V.
