Advantages of using BitSiC

BitSiC, the Bipolar power transistor developed by TranSiC has inherited all of the superior qualities that the Silicon Carbide material offers.

TranSiC’s BitSiC provides three main advantages, offering a basis for differentiating itself in comparison to more commonly used power transistor, based on the silicon material.

The triangle below illustrates these principal system level advantages and how they are interrelated.

High Temperature
The BitSiC can operate at much higher temperatures than any other power transistors can. Standard high voltage power transistors can handle temperature ranges of up to 175°C and in rare cases up to 200°C. The BitSiCs can operate in temperature levels that reach up to 250°C . In high-tech industries there is every so often a need for specific solutions that are very temperature tolerant and at the same time meet high technical specifications. The BitSiC is the answer to these problematic situations.

High Efficiency
Extreme high efficiency can be achieved by using the BitSiC. In fact, the BiTSiC offers higher efficiency than any other power transistor available today. The laws of nature say that high efficiency is achieved on expense of increasing the size of the device and on expense of lower operational temperature. However, the BitSiC has the capability, in comparison to existing solutions, to offer very high efficiency and simultaneously allow for a compact size and relatively high temperatures. Meanwhile, the size of the BitSiC remains competitively small.

Compact Size
In the world of electronics, size is a key element. TranSiC’s power transistors can be provided in the smallest of sizes. TranSiC has through advanced R&D activities found a way to balance a compact size with high levels of power efficiency and allowing for high temperature levels. In comparison to the generally used power transistors (such as those made out of Silicon), efficiency remain high even though the size of TranSiC's power transistor is significantly more compact.

To conclude, solutions to numerous applications can be significantly optimized and moreover, completely new solutions can be realized as a result of using TranSiC’s power transistors.

Solutions using the BitSiC are more reliable and robust as they can withstand a lot more short circuit energy without breaking.
