Power MOSFETs (Metal-Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistors) are three-terminal silicon devices that function by applying a signal to the gate that controls current conduction between source and ...

X-FAB, an analog/mixed-signal and specialty foundry, has launched a silicon carbide (SiC) process technology for power MOSFETs that delivers a significantly reduced cell pitch. That, in turn, enables ...

Compared to traditional silicon, power MOSFETs based on silicon carbide (SiC) can handle higher voltages with lower on-resistance (R DS(on)) and superior thermal conductivity, opening the door to ...

There was this fellow, Rudy Severns, who many years ago went on a speaking tour for International Rectifier to discuss “Hexfets,” their power MOSFETs, when that product line was still new. If memory ...
