Our expert Orlando Esparza explains about the future of Silicon Carbide semiconductors. SiC semiconductors are three times more thermally conductive than silicon and enables higher voltages, extremely low switching losses improving system efficiency, high power density for a smaller footprint, and higher operating temperatures to reduce system size, weight and cost.
