16 Parallel diode to SiC-MOS: to Be or not to Be? Intrinsic Body diode Additional Fast Series & Parallel diode Additional Parallel diode Si-MOSFET SiC-MOSFET SiC ADVANTAGE Poor Reverse Recovery Characteristics Low Vf Blocking series diode mandatory to avoid slow body diode to conduct No advantage: Current flow would go to body diode only Good Reverse Recovery Characterisitcs. Higher Vf No Need for blocking diode Mandatory to reduce high conduction losses of body diode SiC-MOS Body diode is enough when operated at low duty cycle SiC-MOS parallel diode required if operated at high duty cycle Low SiC diode switching losses Less components count and less conduction losses Allow full SiC-MOS performance without limitation of body diode losses Parallel diode can be avoided if SiC -MOSFET is turned ON (Synchronous Rectification) 2014 Microsemi Corporation 16
