Using Off-the-Shelf Transformers to Drive SiC FETs

April 25, 2024

By Coilcraft

Transformers are an essential component for properly driving and optimizing the use of wide band-gap devices like SiC FETs. This paper will guide you through the process of selecting from a wide variety of off-the-shelf transformers that are either designed for a specific application or IC controller, or any other SiC FET application you may be working on. It includes a review of popular topologies for these applications and various transformer types.
