“…However, wide bandgap semiconductor materials, such as silicon carbide (SiC), have properties which offer significant advantages over silicon (Si) in More Electric Aircraft (MEA) [3], [4]. These include improved power density, resulting in reduced size and weight; lower losses, resulting in reduced heat-sinking; and operation at higher junction temperatures, which again positively impacts heat-sink requirements and also facilitates operation in high temperature environments, such as near the engine, [5], [6], [7], [8], [9]. The use of SiC MOSFETs in aerospace, however, has been somewhat limited due to their relative immaturity and lack of heritage in critical applications.…”
