Evaluation kit demonstrates high performance of 1200V MOSFETs and Schottky diodes

Designed to demonstrate the high-performance of all Cree 1200V MOSFETs and Cree Schottky diodes (SBD) in standard TO-247 package, the KIT8020 SiC evaluation kit is now available from Mouser. The kit includes two Cree 80mohm, 1200V Cree MOSFETs and two 1200V 20A Schottky diodes; a half-bridge configured evaluation board that includes isolated gate drivers and power supplies and all the other components needed to quickly assemble the half-bridge power stage. The assembly can be easily configured for several topologies from the basic phase-leg configuration to several other common topologies as shown in the next section. Additional topologies like H-bridge and 3-phase inverter are possible with two or more of the evaluation kits.
