THE KEY EVENT IN APPLIED POWER ELECTRONICS
APEC 2023 focuses on the practical and applied aspects of the power electronics business. This year the conference will cover different interest about power electronics:
- Equipment OEMs that use power supplies and dc-dc converters in their equipment
- Designers of power supplies, dc-dc converters, motor drives, uninterruptable power supplies, inverters and any other power electronic circuits, equipment and systems
- Manufacturers and suppliers of components and assemblies used in power electronics
- Manufacturing, quality and test engineers involved with power electronics equipment
- Marketing, sales and anyone involved in the business of power electronics
- Compliance engineers testing and qualifying power electronics equipment or equipment that uses power electronics

Session: Other Perspectives of Power Electronics – Markets, Society and Policies
IS06.3: 09:20am – 09:45am: State of the Art of SiC Transistors and Modules: Technology and Cost Overview
ABSTRACT:
The main objective of the presentation is to give an overview of the SiC transistors and modules market, players and available technologies. Moreover, the second objective is to define which are the cost drivers of the new technologies in SiC power devices and understand the reason of the success of specific packaging or design. Different devices have been opened and analyzed to understand the SiC technology innovations and a breakdown cost analysis of the manufacturing process has been developed.
