SiC POWER MODULES
Innovative Power Devices
for a Sustainable Future
Traction, industrial equipment, building facilities, electric vehicles, renewable energies, home appliances...
Power devices are a key component in power electronics products for contributing to the realization of a low-carbon
society. Attracting attention as the most energy-efficient power device is one made using new material, silicon-carbide
(SiC). The material characteristics of SiC have led to a dramatic reduction in power loss and significant energy
savings for power electronics devices. Mitsubishi Electric began the development of elemental SiC technologies in
the early 1990s and has since introduced them to achieve practical energy-saving effects for products manufactured
using SiC. Innovative SiC power modules are contributing to the realization of a low-carbon society and more affluent
lifestyles.
SiC: Silicon Carbide-Compound that fuses silicon and carbon at a ratio of one-to-one.

Power loss reduced
High-temperature operation
SiC has approximately 10 times the critical breakdown strength of silicon.
Furthermore, the drift layer that is a main cause of electrical resistance is
one-tenth of the thickness. This allows a large reduction in electrical
resistance and, in turn, reduces power loss. This SiC characteristic
enables dramatic reductions in conductivity loss and switching loss in
power devices.
When the temperature increases, electrons are exited to the conduction
band and the leakage current increases.
At times, this results in abnormal operation.
However, SiC has three times the band gap width of silicon, preventing
the flow of leakage current and enabling operation at high temperatures.

Heat dissipation
With SiC, owing to the high dielectric breakdown, power loss is reduced
and high-voltage is easier to achieve, it is possible to use Schottky
Barrier Diodes (SBDs), which cannot be used with Si. SBDs can realize
high-speed switching motion because they don't have accumulation
carriers. As a result, high-speed switching can be realized.
SiC has three times the heat conductivity of silicon, which improves heat
dissipation.

Development of Mitsubishi Electric SiC Power Devices
and Power Electronics Equipment Incorporating Them
Mitsubishi Electric began developing SiC as a new material in the early 1990s. Pursuing special characteristics,
we succeeded in developing various elemental technologies.
In 2010, we commercialized the first air conditioner in the world equipped with a SiC power device.
Furthermore, substantial energy-saving effects have been achieved for traction and FA machinery.
We will continue to provide competitive SiC power modules with advanced development and achievements from now on.
