and medical. Furthermore, the positive
temperature coefficient of SiC devices
allows for the safe use of parallel devices
for handling higher power or increasing
system redundancy in safety-critical
applications.
Engineers looking to integrate Microchip's
SiC devices into their designs can take
advantage of Microchip's technical
support services. These services guide
engineers through the theory, integration,
development, and deployment of SiC
devices. Microchip also offers hardware
and software tools, including development
kits, evaluation kits, reference designs,
GUIs, and application notes to help
accelerate projects seeking to leverage
SiC technology.
Engineers can perform complex analysis
of Microchip's SiC devices using the
Microchip MPLAB
