CoolSiC™ MOSFET 1700 V SMD enables best efficiency and reduced complexity for high voltage auxiliary power supplies

CoolSiC™ MOSFET 1700 V SMD enables best efficiency and reduced complexity for high voltage auxiliary power supplies: The new 1700 V CoolSiC trench MOSFETs are optimized for flyback topologies with +12 V / 0 V gate-source voltage compatible with common PWM controllers. Thus, they do not need a gate driver IC and can be operated directly by the flyback controller. On-resistance ratings are 450 mΩ, 650 mΩ or 1000 mΩ. The new 7 lead D²PAK SMD package offers extended creepage and clearance distances over 7 mm. With that, it fulfills the usual 1700 V application requirements and PCB specifications, minimizing isolation efforts for the design.
