Eric Motto Principal Application Engineer, Powerex Inc., U.S.A. Tatsuo Ozeki Project Manager, SiC Project Group, Advanced Technology R & D Center, Mitsubishi Electric Corporation, Japan Hidekazu Yamamoto Manager, Power Device Development Dept., Power Device Works, Mitsubishi Electric Corporation, Japan Makoto Seto Manager, Power Electronics System Development Center, Advanced Technology R & D Center, Mitsubishi Electric Corporation, Japan Abstract: At Mitsubishi, R & D work on SiC Power Devices has been continuing for several years through implementation of in-house strategic projects and by active participation in national projects in Japan. Through these activities, advanced high performance MOSFET and Schottky Barrier Diode devices of 1200V-2000V class have been developed. In this presentation, the technical results of these activities will be briefly explained. The conceptual aspects and performance-related evaluation results of some experimental SiC-MOSFET and SiC-SBD device structures will be shown. It will conclude with some discussion of existing issues and possibilities concerning SiC power devices becoming the future de facto solution in the industry.
