Episode Synopsis "How Silicon Carbide (SiC) is revolutionising power efficiency"

Electricity plays a key role in sustainable development, because on the one hand a large proportion of the primary energy used remains unused due to conversion losses, and on the other hand new application technologies – for example e-mobility or heat pumps – lead to increased electricity consumption. In this context, a semiconductor material is increasingly coming into focus – silicon carbide or SiC. In this episode, we talk to Milan Ivkovic, Director of the Segment Analog and Power of EBV Elektronik and Hunter Freberg, PSG Technical Marketing Engineer at semiconductor manufacturer onsemi, about why this material is so exciting and where it offers opportunities in terms of sustainable power generation and use.Discover more benefits or get in touch: onsemi Reliable EliteSiC Solutions | EBV Elektronik (avnet.com)
