Abstract

A novel 1.2 kV/10A, 4H-SiC monolithic, bidirectional switch has been developed for use in cycloconverter applications to facilitate high-frequency direct AC-to-AC power conversion and enables new power converter topologies. A new packaging solution, utilizing a 100 μm flexible polyimide organic laminate substrate is developed to mitigate thermo-mechanical stress during power cycling and enable smaller form factor and lower cost. Multiphysics simulations and static tests were conducted to show performance characterization of the module and compare it against metallic substrates. A new organic laminate epoxy resin composite dielectric (ERCD) is also evaluated for superior thermal performance and shows 63% reduction in junction to case resistance compared to DBC substrates
