Diotec Semiconductor Unveils 1200 V Silicon Carbide MOSFET for Electric Boat Drives

Diotec Semiconductor unveils 1200 V Silicon Carbide MOSFET, DIF120SIC022-AQ. The large number of yachts operating in coastal areas calls for a reduction of both combustion emissions and noise pollution. The solution is an all-electric propulsion system that is emission-free, produces less noise and vibration, and therefore offers cleaner, more efficient navigation. The acceleration, speed, and efficiency of these electric propulsion systems offer an unparalleled cruising experience and set new standards in marine design and technology.

The SiC-MOSFET DIF120SIC022-AQ by Diotec Semiconductor is the perfect device for highly efficient boat drive inverters. It offers 1200 V of Drain-Source voltage and 85 A of continuous Drain current at 100°C case temperature. It comes in a 4-pin TO-247 package, equipped with a Kelvin source contact. This allows for high-speed switching with reduced power losses and high-reliable operation. It is perfectly suited for high-voltage batteries known from electric cars and is now being adopted by the naval sector.
