750V-23mW SiC FET
Rev. B, July 2021
DATASHEET
Description
UJ4C075023K3S
CASE
The UJ4C075023K3S is a 750V, 23mW G4 SiC FET. It is based on a
unique ‘cascode’ circuit configuration, in which a normally-on SiC JFET
is co-packaged with a Si MOSFET to produce a normally-off SiC FET
device. The device’s standard gate-drive characteristics allows for a
true “drop-in replacement” to Si IGBTs, Si FETs, SiC MOSFETs or Si
superjunction devices. Available in the TO-247-3L package, this
device exhibits ultra-low gate charge and exceptional reverse
recovery characteristics, making it ideal for switching inductive loads
and any application requiring standard gate drive.

Applications Information
SiC FETs are enhancement-mode power switches formed by a high-voltage SiC depletion-mode JFET and a low-voltage silicon MOSFET
connected in series. The silicon MOSFET serves as the control unit while the SiC JFET provides high voltage blocking in the off state. This
combination of devices in a single package provides compatibility with standard gate drivers and offers superior performance in terms of low
on-resistance (RDS(on)), output capacitance (Coss), gate charge (QG), and reverse recovery charge (Qrr) leading to low conduction and switching
losses. The SiC FETs also provide excellent reverse conduction capability eliminating the need for an external anti-parallel diode.
Like other high performance power switches, proper PCB layout design to minimize circuit parasitics is strongly recommended due to the high
dv/dt and di/dt rates. An external gate resistor is recommended when the FET is working in the diode mode in order to achieve the optimum
reverse recovery performance. For more information on SiC FET operation, see www.unitedsic.com.
A snubber circuit with a small R(G), or gate resistor, provides better EMI suppression with higher efficiency compared to using a high R(G) value.
There is no extra gate delay time when using the snubber circuitry, and a small R(G) will better control both the turn-off V(DS) peak spike and
ringing duration, while a high R(G) will damp the peak spike but result in a longer delay time. In addition, the total switching loss when using a
snubber circuit is less than using high R(G), while greatly reducing E(OFF) from mid-to-full load range with only a small increase in E(ON). Efficiency
will therefore improve with higher load current. For more information on how a snubber circuit will improve overall system performance, visit
