KIT-CRD-CIL17N-BM

Dynamic Characterization Evaluation Tool Optimized for the 1700 V 62 mm (BM) Module Platform

Wolfspeed’s KIT-CRD-CIL17N-BM is a dynamic performance tool that can be used to evaluate and optimize switching performance of Wolfspeed’s 62mm BM half-bridge power module with both 2nd and 3rd generation Silicon Carbide MOSFETs. A clamped inductive load (CIL) test circuit with high-bandwidth current measurement provides a high-speed, low-inductance test fixture for double pulse testing. This test fixture in conjunction with one of the many gate driver board options allow for measurement of:

Timing (T_Delay-On; T_Delay-Off; T_Rise; T_Fall)
Overshoot (V_DS-Max; I_D-Max)
Speed (di/dt; dv/dt)
Switching Loss (E_ON; E_FF; E_RR)

Specifications

Optimized for Wolfspeed’s XM Silicon Carbide half-bridge power modules
DC bus voltage up to 1500 V
Onboard 110 uF bulk capacitor bank and high-frequency film capacitor bank
High-speed, low-inductance layout with stray inductance of 8.4 nH at 10 Mhz
Onboard high-bandwidth current viewing resistor (CVR)
Screw terminals for power supply and load inductor connections
