Moving from a conventional silicon-based Active Harmonic Filter to one using Silicon Carbide (SiC) MOSFETs represents a major technological leap, and the cooling system is directly impacted. Here’s a detailed look at the cooling system of a SiC Active Harmonic Filter, highlighting how it differs from traditional IGBT-based AHFs. The Core Advantage: Why SiC Changes the Game Silicon ...
The pursuit of perfect power quality is undergoing a fundamental shift, driven by a new semiconductor material: Silicon Carbide (SiC) . Comparing a traditional Active Harmonic Filter (AHF) with a SiC-based model reveals more than incremental upgrades; it showcases a leap in performance, efficiency, and capability. For decades, traditional AHFs have relied on silicon-based IGBTs. These components w...
Boosting Hybrid PCS Performance with SiC Devices Hybrid PCS, or hybrid power conversion systems, are now common in energy storage and EV charging. They link batteries, solar panels, and the power grid. To work well, a hybrid PCS must be fast, efficient, and reliable.This is where silicon carbide (SiC) devices make a big difference. What Is a Hybrid PCS? A hybrid PCS can manage...
