Abstract

This chapter briefly describes possibilities and benefits offered by silicon carbide power transistors, especially SiC MOSFETS, implemented in AC–DC converters dedicated for distributed generation systems. Particular features provided by the wide band gap devices, as high efficiency or high power density, are illustrated by several laboratory prototypes. The chapter presents design parameters of the analyzed demonstrators where different types of SiC MOSFETS are considered. Moreover, experimentally measured efficiency characteristics and current–voltage waveforms are presented for each prototype.
