Description
This reference design represents a complete solution for three-phase AC/DC and
DC/AC (800 V
DC
to 400 V
AC
) applications based on a digital platform optimized for
power conversion.
It is well suited for the Active Front End (AFE) stage in high power charging stations,
industrial battery chargers and UPS. The high switching frequency of the SiC
MOSFETs and the multilevel structure allow nearly 99% efficiency as well as the
optimization of passive power components in terms of size and cost.
