The benefits of using SIC technology in programmable power supplies.
With the worldwide effort to increase energy conservation and reduce fossil fuel use, electrification is occurring at a rapid pace. The electrification of automobiles, airplanes and other transport vehicles is stretching the limits of power consumption across the globe.
With the increasing demand for levels in electrical energy, continual advances in renewable energy solutions are required. This paper will review the trend in increased power and the challenges faced by manufacturers of power instrumentation required to test new products. Furthermore, this paper will present how EA Elektro-Automatik (EA) addressed the challenges with the use of silicon carbide (SiC) transistor technology to create a new line of power supplies that:
- Improved efficiency
- Increased DC output voltage to 2000 V
- Reduced volume with increased power density
- Reduced the $/W cost
