Abstract

This paper will discuss the development of SiC lateral power junction field-effect transistors (JFETs) and ICs. Normally-off RESURF vertical-channel lateral power JFETs are fabricated and characterized. New results for the first demonstration of SiC Power ICs are presented and the potential for distributed DC-DC power converters at high frequencies is discussed.
