C2M0080170P

Wolfspeed extends its leadership in SiC technology by introducing two new 1700V SiC discrete MOSFETs in optimized packing with wide creepage and clearance distance between drain and source (~8mm) thereby providing extra electrical isolation suitable for high pollution environments. The package includes a separate kelvin source pin which reduces the source inductance found in traditional TO-247-3 packages and can reduce the switching losses by as much as 30%. The newly released products are available in 45mΩ (C2M0045170P) and 80mΩ (C2M0080170P) and are designed for newly evolving applications requiring a 1500V blocking capability. Designers can reduce component-count and simplify designs by moving from multi-level topologies to simpler two-level topologies made possible by the improved switching performance and higher blocking capability. The device features low on-resistance combined with a low gate charge; making it ideally suited for solar boost converters; DC-DC applications as well as AC-AC converters. See our complete list of reference designs for examples of popular topologies commonly used with SiC today.
