More about our silicon carbide solutions

We continuously add SiC-based products - including the revolutionary CoolSiC™ MOSFETs in trench technology - to the already existing Si-assortment. Today the company offers one of the most comprehensive power portfolios in the industry – ranging from ultra-low to high-voltage power devices.

Going even beyond only ensuring the availability of best-fit solutions, we walked the extra mile to optimize the SiC-based product offering to meet specific application requirements. In response to the fact that ultra-fast switching power transistors such as CoolSiC™ MOSFETs can be easier handled utilizing isolated gate output sections, our customers are supplied with the perfectly matching galvanically isolated EiceDRIVER™ gate-driver ICs based on our coreless transformer technology.

Producing several millions of hybrid modules (a combination of a fast silicon-based switch with a CoolSiC™ Shottky diode) in recent years resulted in a tremendous know-how and capacity build-up and further contributed to our technology leadership.
