Wolfspeed has developed the XM3 power module platform to maximize the benefits of Silicon Carbide while keeping the module and system design robust, simple, and cost-effective. With half the weight and volume of a standard 62 mm module, the XM3 power module maximizes power density while minimizing loop inductance and enabling simple power bussing. The optimized packaging enables 175°C continuous junction operation, with a high-reliability Silicon Nitride (Si3N4) power substrate to ensure mechanical robustness under extreme conditions. The XM3 is a perfect fit for demanding applications such as traction drives, DC fast chargers, universal power supplies, and automotive testing equipment.
