RECOM RxxP22005D and RKZ-xx2005D series DC/DC converters for SiC MOSFETs

Click2Contact

One of the challenges of driving SiC MOSFETs is the high frequency and high voltage at which they are switched. High potentials between the control and power side of a SiC MOSFET application can wear down isolation barriers, eventually causing them to fail.

RECOM has introduced two 2 W DC/DC converter series especially designed to power SiC MOSFETs. The RxxP22005D and RKZ-xx2005D series come with 3, 4 and even 5.2 kVDC isolation to ensure that the isolation barrier stands up to harsh tests.

Switching SiC MOSFETs requires turn-on and turn-off voltages which are not common for other IGBT or MOSFET applications. The series are available with input voltages of 5, 12, 15 or 24 V and feature asymmetric outputs of +20 and -5 V to efficiently and effectively switch the SiC MOSFET.

The converters come fully equipped with an ultralow parasitic capacitance and power sharing capabilities. They are UL/IEC-60950-1 certified and fully compliant to RoHS2 and REACH.
