Key Points
• SiC enables a more sustainable future by
enhancing device and system power efficiency.
• The energy efficiency and miniaturization of
SiC devices reduce the demand for cooling
systems and minimize the use of materials
such as copper and aluminum.
• By facilitating a transition to high-voltage
systems, SiC improves the efficiency of EVs
and renewable energy applications.
• onsemi advances the adoption of SiC in
sustainable technologies by providing power-
efficient and durable devices, performing
comprehensive lifetime tests, and maintaining
a vertically integrated production process.
