1.2kV 260A three-phase silicon carbide power module
Rhopoint Components is to supply a 1.2kV 260A three-phase silicon carbide power module for electric vehicles. Made by Cissoid and called CMT-PLA3SB12340, it can supply its 26A at 90°C, and up to 340A at 25°C. This is a complete power module, including output-to-baseplate (5kVdc for 1min) and input-to-output (3kV for 1min) isolation, power supplies to feed the secondary side gate ...
PCIM: Cissoid and Edag team for SiC traction inverter
Power component maker Cissoid has teamed up with automotive engineering services provider Edag Group to develop SiC traction inverters for electric mobility. “This collaboration brings together Cissoid’s expertise in silicon carbide power semiconductor modules and controls with EDAG’s know-how in the design, integration and validation of electric powertrains,” according to Cissoid. “The two companies aim to offer e-mobility OEMs and ...
Cissoid intelligent SiC power modules for industrial EV
Applied EV has picked Cissoid to supply silicon carbide based inverter modules for its autonomous electric vehicles. The module, CXT-ICM3SA, was introduced at APEC earlier this year and combines a three-phase 1.2kV SiC mosfet bridge – rated at 340 to 550A depending on model – a driver board and a control board in a stack. The control board is built ...
3-phase SiC power modules are liquid or AlSiC air-cooled
Belgium-based Cissoid has introduced silicon carbide three-phase intelligent power modules with either: liquid-cooling for e-mobility or with a lightweight AlSiC flat baseplate for natural convection or forced cooling in aerospace and industry. The products include sophisticated gate drivers. “The embedded gate driver solves multiple challenges related to fast-switching SiC transistors: negative drive and active Miller clamping prevent parasitic turn-on, desaturation detection ...
SiC mosfets switch 60A at 225 deg C
Cissoid has used silicon carbide (SiC) mosfets in a power module which can operate reliably between -55°C and +225°C, delivering up to 60A. With dual mosfets the module, called CHT-Pluto, is designed for for half-bridges with 30A continuous capability for both low-side and high-side. The two independent switches can be used in parallel to deliver a total of 60A with a ...
Hades for extreme temperatures
Cissoid has brought out its second generation of Hades isolated gate drivers. Hades is aimed at high density power converters, motor drives and actuators based on SiC transistors, traditional power mosfets and IGBTs.
Need four diodes at 225°C?
Belgium firm Cissoid has released a quad 80V wide temperature range diode package. Called CHT-ELARA, its isolated diodes operate across -55 to 225°C, handling up to 900mA at the highest temperature. They come in a hermetic 5×5.5mm TDFP16 ceramic package with a heat slug to achieve 11°C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance. Applications are expected in power rectification, for fly-back or forward ...
CISSOID samples ruggedised regulator
CISSOID, the high-temperature chip specialist, is sampling CMT-ANTARES; a fixed-voltage 5V linear voltage regulator ruggedised for high reliability and high temperature automotive and industrial applications.
Cissoid designs mosfet for operation from -55°C up to +225°C
This transistor is capable of switching a current up to 1A (continuous) or blocking a voltage up to 80V
