Toshiba enhances SiC chip reliability for EVs and grid tech

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Toshiba Device & Storage has developed new trench-gate silicon carbide (SiC) MOSFETs that significantly improve long-term reliability. These chips reduce gate threshold voltage drift under stress by 50%, addressing a key vulnerability in SiC technology. This advancement is crucial for the stability and longevity of power systems in electric vehicles and grid infrastructure. AI

IMPACT Enhances the reliability of power components crucial for AI-driven infrastructure and electric vehicles.
