Industrial development of silicon carbide

Silicon carbide has the characteristics of high input impedance, low noise, good linearity, etc., is one of the rapidly developing silicon carbide accessories, and the first to achieve commercialization. Compared with MOSFETs, there are no reliability problems caused by gate oxide defects and low carrier mobility limitations, and its unipolar operating characteristics maintain good high-frequency operation capability. In addition, the silicon carbide junction structure has better stability and reliability at high temperatures so that the threshold voltage is usually negative, that is, the normally open device, which is extremely unfavorable for power electronics applications, and is not compatible with the current common drive circuit. By introducing the technology of groove injection device, the enhanced device under normal off state is developed. However, enhanced devices are often formed at the expense of certain positive on-resistance characteristics, so normally open (depletion type) is easier to achieve higher power density and current capacity, and depletion type can be achieved by cascading normally off operating state. The cascade method is implemented through a series of low-voltage silicon-based MOSFETs. The cascaded drive circuit is naturally compatible with the general purpose silicon device drive circuit. This cascade structure is very suitable for replacing the original silicon in high-voltage and high-power occasions, and directly avoids the compatibility problem of the drive circuit.
