Frequently Asked Questions
How does the SCT1000N170AG compare to standard silicon MOSFETs for a 1700 V automotive inverter stage?
SCT1000N170AG is a silicon carbide (SiC) MOSFET rated at 1700 V and 7 A with a typical RDS(on) of 1.0 Ω. Compared to silicon equivalents, SiC enables significantly lower switching losses at high frequencies, higher junction temperature operation, and smaller filter components in automotive OBC and traction inverter designs.
What AEC qualification level does SCT1000N170AG carry for use in automotive power modules?
SCT1000N170AG is AEC-Q101 automotive-qualified, confirming it meets the stress and reliability requirements for use in vehicle power electronics including 48 V to 800 V EV drivetrains and onboard chargers rated up to 1700 V breakdown.
What is the feedback capacitance (Crss) of SCT1000N170AG and why does it matter for switching converters?
SCT1000N170AG has a maximum feedback capacitance (Crss) of 3.4 pF. A lower Crss reduces the Miller effect and gate drive charge, enabling faster switching transitions and lower dynamic losses in high-frequency power converters above 100 kHz.
Can SCT1000N170AG be used in industrial energy storage inverters outside of automotive applications?
Yes. While AEC-Q101 qualified for automotive use, SCT1000N170AG's 1700 V rating, 7 A drain current, and SiC technology also suit industrial grid-tied inverters, uninterruptible power supplies (UPS), and battery energy storage systems requiring high blocking voltage and fast 100+ kHz switching.
