May 19, 2025 /SemiMedia/ — Germany-based Diotec Semiconductor has launched its latest 650V Silicon Carbide MOSFET, the DIF065SIC020, targeting the growing demand for efficient, high-frequency power systems in the semiconductor sector. Featuring an ultra-low RDS(on) of 20mΩ and encapsulated in a TO-247-4L package with Kelvin Source, the device supports improved switching performance and energy efficiency.

With the increasing need for high-voltage switching at elevated frequencies, conventional silicon-based MOSFETs and IGBTs are reaching their limits. SiC technology, by contrast, offers higher breakdown voltage, lower switching losses, and greater thermal reliability—ideal for industrial motor drives, EV charging systems, photovoltaic inverters, and server power supplies.

The DIF065SIC020 supports peak drain currents up to 150A, operates across a junction temperature range of -55°C to +175°C, and offers a maximum thermal resistance of 0.38 K/W. These characteristics make it suitable for thermally demanding applications, while maintaining fast switching and low gate charge for higher system efficiency.

Diotec’s latest release reflects the broader industry shift toward wide bandgap semiconductors. The company noted that SiC-based MOSFETs are becoming a core solution for modern power electronics, especially in applications requiring compact size, high power density, and stringent energy efficiency standards. The firm aims to continue expanding its SiC product portfolio to meet increasing customer demand.
