LCSC supplier Shikues has invested in the battery energy storage market, providing energy storage systems with more suitable devices. Shikues launched a new product, the SIC diode.
Advantages of SIC Diode
As the specifications and heat dissipation requirements of power devices are getting higher and higher, compared with traditional silicon materials, the third-generation semiconductor silicon carbide (SiC) diode performs better. The band gap is 3 times that of silicon materials, the thermal conductivity is 3 times that of silicon materials, the electron saturation drift velocity is 2 times that of silicon, and the critical breakdown field strength is 10 times that of silicon.
The reverse recovery time of the SiC Schottky diode is almost zero, and it has the characteristics of high breakdown voltage, high efficiency, and high reliability. Shikues SiC diode can reduce losses, reduce EMI/EMC, and has the advantages of reducing system costs and improving product reliability.
SiC Diode Products
Shikues SiC Schottky diodes have four packaging forms: TO-252, TO-220-2L, TO-220-AC, and TO-247-2L. The voltage is available in three options: 650V, 900V, and 1200V. And the current specification range is 5~20A. The product has the advantages of high temperature and high voltage resistance, better electron mobility, lower power loss, and the ability to operate in high-frequency and high-temperature environments without affecting reliability. It finds application in outdoor power supplies, inverters, HID lighting, motor drives, high-power devices, and other such environments.
About Outdoor Power Supplies
Outdoor power supplies, also known as portable energy storage power supplies, are also called portable lithium-ion battery energy storage systems. They have built-in high-energy-density lithium-ion batteries that can store electrical energy.
Compared to traditional generators, outdoor power supplies do not require oil burning and maintenance, and there is no risk of poisoning. They have the advantages of easy operation, low noise, long cycle life, and stable and reliable overall performance. At the same time, outdoor power supplies are lightweight and easy to carry. Therefore, in recent years, whether it is outdoor camping, gatherings with friends, or outdoor shooting, you can see the presence of outdoor mobile power supplies.
With the improvement of usability and widespread adoption of outdoor power supplies, the portable energy storage market will develop in an orderly manner, and there will be a lot of room for future development.
Conclusion
LCSC supplier Shikues has expanded into the battery energy storage market, providing more suitable energy storage systems. As part of this, Shikues has launched a new product, the SiC (silicon carbide) Schottky diode. Compared to traditional silicon materials, SiC diodes offer superior performance with a wider bandgap, higher thermal conductivity, faster electron velocity, and greater breakdown strength. Shikues SiC Schottky diodes have features like near-zero reverse recovery time, high efficiency, and high reliability. Available in various package options and voltage ratings, these SiC diodes can reduce losses, EMI/EMC, and system costs while improving overall reliability. They are well-suited for outdoor power supplies, inverters, motor drives, and other high-power, high-frequency, and high-temperature applications.
