Silicon Carbide Half Bridge Module Wolfspeed WAS310M17BM3 1700 Volt 310 Amp High Frequency Operation
Product Overview
The Wolfspeed WAS310M17BM3 is a 1700 V, 310 A Silicon Carbide Half-Bridge Module designed for high-frequency, ultra-low loss operation. It features an industry-standard 62 mm footprint, enabling system retrofits, and offers high humidity operation (THB-80). Key benefits include increased system efficiency due to the low switching and conduction losses of SiC technology, zero reverse recovery from diodes, zero turn-off tail current from MOSFETs, and normally-off, fail-safe device operation. Typical applications include induction heating, motor drives, renewables, railway auxiliary & traction, EV fast charging, and UPS and SMPS.
