KIT-CRD-CIL17N-XM

Dynamic Characterization Evaluation Tool Optimized for the Wolfspeed 1700 V XM Half-Bridge Module Platform

Wolfspeed’s KIT-CRD-CIL17N-XM is a dynamic performance tool that can be used to evaluate and optimize switching performance of Wolfspeed’s 1700 V XM half-bridge power modules with 3rd generation Silicon Carbide (SiC) MOSFETs. A clamped inductive load (CIL) test circuit with high-bandwidth current measurement provides a high-speed, low-inductance test fixture for double pulse testing. This test fixture in conjunction with one of the many gate driver board options allow for measurement of:

• Timing (TDelay-On; TDelay-Off; TRise; TFall)
• Overshoot (VDS-Max; ID-Max)
• Speed (di/dt; dv/dt)
• Switching Loss (EON; EOFF; ERR)

Specifications

• Optimized for Wolfspeed’s XM Silicon Carbide half-bridge power modules
• DC bus voltage up to 1500 V
• Onboard 110 uF bulk capacitor bank and high-frequency film capacitor bank
