Transportation and industry logistics account for a significant percentage of global carbon-dioxide emissions, primarily due to the burning of diesel and gasoline within internal-combustion-engine (ICE) vehicles. Industrial e-mobility applications require reliable and efficient solutions to manage high voltages and currents
Addressing this need, wide-bandgap (WBG) semiconductors like Wolfspeed’ssilicon-carbide (SiC) devices enable higher switching frequencies and greater power densities at much higher operating temperatures. In this podcast, we talk to Guy Moxey, the VP of Power Development at Wolfspeed, about where we are and where he thinks the WBG industry is going.
