A COMPARISON STUDY OF THE FEATURES OF DC/DC SYSTEMS WITH SI IGBT AND SIC MOSFET TRANSISTORS

Abstract

This paper presents a comparison of the efficiency of two bidirectional DC/DC converters based on dual H-bridge topology. Tested converters were built using Si-based IGBT transistors and SiC-based MOSFETs. The results of the research are efficiency characteristics, taken from tests at the frequency range of 10÷60 kHz. Analysis of the results points to a massive advantage of the SiC-based design over the Si-based one.<br/><br/>
