Short Circuit Withstand Capability of Gen. 4 SiC MOSFETs

Hello,
In your white paper 'Gen 4 SiC Technology: Redefining Performance…', it is stated that the Gen 4 devices can exhibit a short circuit withstand time of up to 2.3 µs.


Could you provide more details on this subject? Such as test parameters, part numbers, waveforms? Any info regarding E4MS025120J2 specifically?

Thank you in advance,
Best regards

    Greetings:

    Below is a circuit diagram of the short circuit test setup. There also is a screen capture with short circuit waveforms from a C4MS025120K. This part uses the same Mosfet die as the one you are interested in except it is in a 4 lead TO-247 package versus a 7-lead TO-263 package.
