3 Reasons Why Using SiC Diodes in Your High Voltage Multiplier

SiC JBS diodes exhibit much lower leakage current as well as a better thermal behavior compared to Si Ultrafast diodes, which make them better suited for Power Applications and High-Frequency Applications:
1.Better thermal conductivity
2.Lower ON-state resistance
3.No Reverse Recovery Time at diode turn-off
Which leads to a more compact design. Example of characteristics and benefits in a typical application: 1kV → 5kV, 100W, 5 stages voltage multiplier:
*Parameters and benefits exposed in this table have to be correlated with applications and needs. Example of a 3.6kV Power supply using 1.2kV SiC diode
