With increasing high-voltage content in automotive and industrial end equipment comes a greater need for protection. Microchip’s E-Fuse, enabled by 700V and 1200V Silicon Carbide technology, provides a faster, more reliable method for protecting power electronic applications. E-Fuse solutions can detect and interrupt fault currents microseconds faster than traditional approaches. Fast response times limit peak fault current and prevent a fault event from becoming a hard failure. In this session at Bodo’s WBG Event in November 2022, Richardson RFPD FAE Simon Tomkins and Microchip staff applications engineer Ehab Tarmoon take a closer look at this E-Fuse technology.
