Teledyne
Scientific Company develops advanced power semiconductor
switches and modules using wide band-gap Silicon Carbide
(SiC). SiC offers a variety of system advantages
over conventional switches and modules.
- Gains in power efficiency
- Reductions in size and weight, reduction in converter size and weight (33%-60%)
- High-switching speed
- Low conduction and low switching losses
- High temperature operating capabilities
Teledyne Scientific
Company demonstrated the world’s first SiC-based motor drive
with an efficiency of 99.4% and SiC-based HV DC-DC
converter with a switching frequency of 1MHz. For high-power
communications, we have demonstrated 50W SiC MESFET PA
modules with excellent linearity and low return-to-loss.
