Product Description

Product Overview

The CAS350M12BM3 is a 1200 V, 350 A Silicon Carbide (SiC) half-bridge module designed for high-frequency operation with ultra-low losses. It features zero reverse recovery from diodes and zero turn-off tail current from MOSFETs, offering normally-off, fail-safe device operation. The module utilizes a copper baseplate and aluminum nitride insulator for efficient thermal management. Its industry-standard 62mm footprint facilitates system retrofitting and enables increased system efficiency. Key applications include induction heating, motor drives, renewables, railway auxiliary & traction, EV fast charging, and UPS and SMPS.
