Wolfspeed Silicon Carbide Test/Evaluation Products CRD250DA12E-XM3

This 250kW three-phase inverter demonstrates best-in-class system-level power density and efficiency obtained by using Wolfspeed’s new XM3 power module platform. The XM3 power module platform is optimized for SiC MOSFETs in a high-density, low-inductance footprint, which reduces system-level losses and simplifies the overall system design.
