40 kW/L High Switching Frequency Three-Phase AC 400 V All-SiC Inverter

Abstract:

We, the R&D Partnership for Future Power Electronics Technology (FUPET), have reported a forced-air-cooled DC 600 V three-phase AC 400 V inverter built with SiC-JFETs and SiC-SBDs and designed to attain an output power density (OPD) of 40 kW/L with a switching frequency (fSW) of 50 kHz. This paper reports the test results of this inverter attaining an OPD of 40 kW/L in operating a 3-phase motor with fSW = 50 kHz, and an OPD of more than 60 kW/L in operating an equivalent circuit with fSW = 20 kHz by adopting specialized high speed drive circuit boards.
