Explanation of SiC MOSFET parameters


Parameter Explanation
Operational mode This details whether the FET is an enhancement or depletion mode
Channel type The channel of the MOSFET can either be an N-type channel where electrons are the majority carriers or P-type where holes are the majority current carrier.
Drain to Source voltage VDSS This is the maximum voltage that can be sustained between the drain and source
Gate to source voltage VGSS This is the maximum voltage that can be sustained between the drain and the gate.
Maximum drain current continuous ID This is the maximum current that can be carried byt he device. Sometimes there may be a differentiation between the continuous and pulsed or peak values

Parameter Explanation
Zero gate voltage drain current IDSS This is the current carried by the device when the gate voltage is zero. The test conditions are normally stated for this.
Gate threshold voltage VGS(th) This is the minimum gate-to-source voltage, VGS required to create a conductive channel between the source and drain terminals
Static drain source ON resistance RDS(ON) This is the resistance of the device when turned on. The test conditions of voltage and current are normally given for this.
Drain source ON voltage VDS(ON) This is the voltage across the device when it is turned on. Again the test conditions are given.
Forward transconductance gFS Forward transconductance also given the letters gm is defined as the change in drain current (ΔID) for a small change in the gate-source voltage ΔVGS, with the drain-source voltage, VDS held constant.

These are the main SiC MOSFET parameters that have been included in our list. Being a form of MOSFET, they are basically the same as other FETs and MOSFETs.
