As AI scales, a greater lens is on the upstream power sources that are expected to keep up with rapidly expanding data center deployments. Amperesand is helping build the cornerstone of tomorrow’s grid by developing highly reliable, medium voltage (MV) SiC-based solid state transformers. Read more to learn how Amperesand and Wolfspeed partnered to make it happen.
Dynamic Characterization Evaluation Tool Optimized for the 62mm (BM) Module Platform
KIT-CRD-CIL12N-BM
Wolfspeed’s KIT-CRD-CIL12N-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 (TDelay-On; TDelay-Off; TRise; TFall)
- Overshoot (VDS-Max; ID-Max)
- Speed (di/dt; dv/dt)
- Switching Loss (EON; EFF; ERR)
