When combined with ROHM's SiC modules, these designs help reduce the labor hours required for device evaluation.
In high-power conversion circuits, while SiC power devices contribute to greater efficiency and reliability, they can also increase the workload associated with thermal and peripheral circuit design. Reference designs published by ROHM support output power levels up to 300 kW, facilitating the adoption of SiC modules in a wide range of industrial and automotive applications.
Three types of SiC modules compatible with these reference designs are now available through online distributors such as DigiKey and Farnell.
About the reference designs
These reference designs are intended for users to utilize published design data. To obtain a reference design plate or evaluation kit, please contact a sales representative or visit the contact page on the ROHM website. (Quantities are limited.)
Regarding the online sale of SiC modules:
Below you will find detailed information about the SiC modules currently available through online distributors.
New molded SiC modules are now available for online purchase.
Simulation Support
We also offer various support resources to facilitate rapid evaluation and implementation of our products. ROHM's comprehensive solutions, including simulation and thermal design assistance, can provide valuable support in component selection.
Various design data related to evaluation boards can be downloaded from their corresponding page for each reference design, while product information for SiC modules compatible with the reference designs can also be accessed from each product page.
Furthermore, the ROHM Solution Simulator, a simulation tool that enables system-level verification from the component selection phase, is available on the ROHM website.

EcoSiC
™ is a brand of devices that utilize silicon carbide (SiC) and is attracting attention in the power device field by demonstrating performance even superior to that of silicon (Si). ROHM independently develops technologies essential to the evolution of SiC, from wafer fabrication and production processes to packaging and quality control methods. At the same time, we have implemented an integrated production system throughout the manufacturing process, solidifying our position as a leading SiC supplier.
