Abstract

Performance metrics and test instrumentation needs for emerging high-voltage, high-speed SiC power devices are described. Unique power device and package thermal measurement test systems and parameter extraction methods are introduced, and applied to assess performance of recently developed 10-kV SiC MOSFETs and PiN diodes.
