Introduction The purpose of this evaluation board is to demonstrate the high-switching performance of Cree 3rd Generation Silicon Carbide (SiC) Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistors (MOSFETs) in a 7L D2PAK package. The new surface-mount device (SMD), specifically designed for high voltage MOSFETs, has a small footprint with a wide creepage distance of 7mm between drain and source. The new package also includes a separate driver source connection, which reduces gate ringing and provides clean gate signals. This evaluation board (Figure 1) comes configured as a basic half bridge circuit with two C3M0120090J SiC MOSFETs installed. The board can easily be configured into common power conversion topologies such as synchronous boost, synchronous buck, Inverter, and other topologies. This board was designed to make it easy for the user to:  Evaluate SiC MOSFET switching performance in a 7L D2PAK package to characterize EON and EOFF losses.  Evaluate thermal performance. The integrated heatsink is predrilled with a blind hole on the backside for thermocouples so the heatsink surface temperature can be accurately estimated.  Serve as a PC board layout example for driving Gen 3 SiC MOSFETs in the newly developed 7L D2PAK package.  Easily evaluate the effects of different Rg values, Miller clamps, uni-polar versus bipolar gate drive, fault detection circuit, various thermal interface materials, and cooling methods. Figure 1. Evaluation Board (top and side view) 2. Features The evaluation board’s physical dimensions are 127mm x 98mm x 58mm. The board comes preassembled with an isolated heatsink, cooling fan, and 2 SiC MOSFETS. The heatsink is attached to the board with five nonconductive screws (RENY hexagon socket low head cap bolt M5 6mm). 5 CPWR-AN17, Rev -, 05-2016 Copyright © 2016 Cree, Inc. All rights reserved.

Besides the two Cree 900V, 120mΩ (C3M0120090) SiC MOSFETs (Q1 and Q2), there are two onboard isolated gate driver circuits to drive both Q1 and Q2. There are four power connectors (CON1, CON2, CON3, and CON4) for connecting to the +DC link, -DC link, and midpoint. There is a 20 pin signal/supply voltage ribbon cable connector (J10) onboard which carries the logic power, status signals, fault signals, and gate drive control signals. CON1 Q2 J10 Gate Drive CON2 Q1 CON3, CON4 Figure 2. Block Diagram Each gate drive circuit consists of a 2A isolated gate driver chip and a generous 2W isolated DC/DC converter that can comfortably switch the SiC MOSFETs at up to 3MHz. The driver chip provides 1200V of isolation between the low voltage control side and the high voltage drive side. The DC/DC converters are sourced with +12V on their inputs. Through a series of jumpers, JM1-JM6 (Figure 4), the gate drivers can each be configured as a low cost uni-polar (+15V/0V) gate drive or as a high performance bi-polar gate drive (+15V/-3V). The DC/DC converters provide a maximum of 5.2kV of isolation for 60 seconds. The complete board assembly will withstand a 1.5kVAC.rms Hi-pot test for 60 seconds. 6 CPWR-AN17, Rev -, 05-2016 Copyright © 2016 Cree, Inc. All rights reserved.

Jumper Table There is a short circuit protection function for each gate drive circuit by means of Vds voltage monitoring. The drain of each MOSFET is monitored (Figure 4). When either of the MOSFETs is in the ON state, and the drain voltage exceeds approximately 5.7V, the gate driver reverts to the OFF state and the fault signal for the channel is toggled. 7 CPWR-AN17, Rev -, 05-2016 Copyright © 2016 Cree, Inc.

Gate Drive shown with Miller Clamp and short circuit protection. In a half bridge configuration, turning on one device tends to induce a voltage on the opposing device gate node. If this voltage exceeds the threshold voltage it is possible to get an unintended shoot through event in certain devices. A negative gate bias (Bi-polar drive) is one common way to mitigate this issue. When using a uni-polar drive sometimes it is common to use a Miller clamp to ensure that the gate voltage of the opposing device is clamped below the threshold voltage. To activate the Miller clamp, a jumper (JM5=upper channel, JM6=lower channel) needs to be shorted. The Miller clamp should only be enabled when the gate driver is configured for +15V/0V output voltage. Although we provide this feature on the board for the user to evaluate the effects of the Miller clamp, it is not necessary to have a Miller clamp. The SiC MOSFET channel is not fully turned ON when the gate voltage exceeds the device threshold voltage. For Cree SiC MOSFETs, the gate voltage would have to exceed 9V to have a significant shoot through event. 2.1 Cooling CAUTION IT IS NOT NECESSARY FOR YOU TO TOUCH THE BOARD WHILE IT IS ENERGIZED. WHEN DEVICES ARE BEING ATTACHED FOR TESTING, THE BOARD MUST BE DISCONNECTED FROM THE ELECTRICAL SOURCE AND ALL BULK CAPACITORS MUST BE FULLY DISCHARGED. SOME COMPONENTS ON THE BOARD REACH TEMPERATURES ABOVE 50˚ CELSIUS. THESE 8 CPWR-AN17, Rev -, 05-2016 Copyright © 2016 Cree, Inc. All rights reserved.

DO NOT TOUCH THE BOARD WHEN IT IS ENERGIZED AND ALLOW THE BULK CAPACITORS TO COMPLETELY DISCHARGE PRIOR TO HANDLING THE BOARD. PLEASE ENSURE THAT APPROPRIATE SAFETY PROCEDURES ARE FOLLOWED WHEN OPERATING THIS BOARD AS SERIOUS INJURY, INCLUDING DEATH BY ELECTROCUTION OR SERIOUS INJURY BY ELECTRICAL SHOCK OR ELECTRICAL BURNS, CAN OCCUR IF YOU DO NOT FOLLOW PROPER SAFETY PRECAUTIONS. 警告 通电时不必接触板子。连接器件进行测试时，必须切断板子电源，且大容量电容器必须释 放完所有电量。 板子上一些组件的温度可能超过50摄氏度。移除电源后，上述情况可能会短暂持续，直至 大容量电容器完全释放电量。通电时禁止触摸板子，应在大容量电容器完全释放电量后， 再操作板子。 请确保在操作板子时已经遵守了正确的安全规程，否则可能会造成严重伤害，包括触电死 亡、电击伤害、或电灼伤。 警告 通電している時にボードに接触する必要がありません。設備をつないで試験する時、必 ずボードの電源を切ってください。また、大容量のコンデンサーで電力を完全に釈放し てください。 ボードのモジュールの温度は50度以上になるかもしれません。電源を切った後、上記の 状況がしばらく持続する可能性がありますので、大容量のコンデンサーで電力を完全に 釈放するまで待ってください。通電している時にボードに接触するのは禁止です。大容 量のコンデンサーで電力をまだ完全に釈放していない時、ボードを操作しないでくださ い。 ボードを操作している時、正確な安全ルールを守っているのを確保してください。さも なければ、感電、電撃、厳しい火傷などの死傷が出る可能性があります。 The evaluation board has several integrated features designed for effective thermal management. The top and bottom side of the board uses heavy 8oz. copper to help dissipate heat better. It also has a 3mm diameter solid copper inlay directly under the SiC MOSEFTs (Q1 and Q2) to effectively transfer the heat to the bottom side of the board. The board is mechanically attached via 5 nonconductive screws to an extruded aluminum heatsink with an integrated 30mm fan. Since the 9 CPWR-AN17, Rev -, 05-2016 Copyright © 2016 Cree, Inc.

This is achieved via a high performance 0.01 inch thermal interface material, Sil-Pad 2000 manufactured by Bergquist (Mfg. P/N SP2000-0.010-00-1212). A thermal stack up of the assembly is shown below in Figure 5. Figure 5. Thermal management and assembly stack up. The measured values for the thermal resistance from the device junction (C3M0120090J) to the case (Rth.j-c), from the device case to the surface of the heatsink (Rth.c-s), and from the heatsink to ambient with the fan turned ON with a 12VDC source (Rth.s-a), is listed in Table 2 below. Table 2. Measured thermal resistance values 3. Example Topologies The half bridge circuit topology was chosen for its flexibility, as it forms the common switch node in many common topologies.

Connectors CAUTION ***HIGH VOLTAGE RISK*** THERE CAN BE VERY HIGH VOLTAGES PRESENT ON THIS BOARD WHEN CONNECTED TO AN ELECTRICAL SOURCE, AND SOME COMPONENTS ON THIS BOARD CAN REACH TEMPERATURES ABOVE 50° CELSIUS. FURTHER, THESE CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE AFTER THE ELECTRCIAL SOURCE IS DISCONNECTED UNTIL THE BULK CAPACITORS ARE FULLY DISCHARGED. DO NOT TOUCH THE BOARD WHEN IT IS ENERGIZED AND ALLOW THE BULK CAPACITORS TO COMPLETELY DISCHARGE PRIOR TO HANDLING THE BOARD. The connectors on the board have very high voltage levels present when the board is connected to an electrical source, and thereafter until the bulk capacitors are fully discharged. Please ensure that appropriate safety procedures are followed when working with these connectors as serious injury, including death by electrocution or serious injury by electrical shock or electrical burns, can occur if you do not follow proper safety precautions. When devices are being attached for testing, the board must be disconnected from the electrical source and all bulk capacitors must be fully discharged. After use the board should immediately be disconnected from the electrical source. After disconnection any stored up charge in the bulk capacitors will continue to charge the connectors. Therefore, you must always ensure that all bulk capacitors have completely discharged prior to handling the board. 警告 ***高压危险*** 接通电源后，该评估板上可能存在非常高的电压，板子上一些组件的温度可能超过50摄氏 度。此外，移除电源后，上述情况可能会短暂持续，直至大容量电容器完全释放电量。通 电时禁止触摸板子，应在大容量电容器完全释放电量后，再触摸板子。 板子上的连接器在充电时以及充电后都具有非常高的电压，直至大容量电容器完全释放电 量。请确保在操作板子时已经遵守了正确的安全流程，否则可能会造成严重伤害，包括触 电死亡、电击伤害或电灼伤。连接器件进行测试时，必须切断板子电源，且大容量电容器 必须释放了所有电量。使用后应立即切断板子电源。切断电源后，大容量电容器中存储的 电量会继续输入至连接器中。因此，必须始终在操作板子前，确保大容量电容器已完全释 放电量。 12 CPWR-AN17, Rev -, 05-2016 Copyright © 2016 Cree, Inc.

Clamped Inductive Switching Measurement Circuit A precision current viewing resistor will be needed so that the current though Q1 can be measured. There are provisions (J9) on the board for installing a through-hole current viewing resistor. The board comes with a jumper in place. This jumper must be removed when adding a current viewing resistor. T&M Research makes a viewing resistor (part #SDN-414-01) (Figure 12) that can be used with this board. The resistor has a resistance of 10milliohms and therefore works with most 15 CPWR-AN17, Rev -, 05-2016 Copyright © 2016 Cree, Inc. All rights reserved.

If the user selects a different resistor, the user should ensure that the resistor has minimal insertion inductance. Figure 12. SDN-414-01 (sold separately) Due to the fast switching speeds associated with Cree SiC MOSFETs, the following steps must be followed closely to yield the most accurate results possible:    Scope probes measuring VDS and VGS must have minimal loop area between the signal and ground. The oscilloscope probes measuring VDS and IDS must be properly deskewed. Bulk capacitance may need to be added to the board to minimize DC link voltage sag during two-pulse measurements. The amount will vary based on desired current level and pulse width. Figure 14 shows a two-pulse setup. Figure 15 shows the waveforms measured with this twopulse setup. 16 CPWR-AN17, Rev -, 05-2016 Copyright © 2016 Cree, Inc. All rights reserved.

(on behalf of itself and its affiliates, “Cree”) reserves the right in its sole discretion to make corrections, enhancements, improvements, or other changes to the board or to discontinue the board. THE BOARD DESCRIBED IS AN ENGINEERING TOOL INTENDED SOLELY FOR LABORATORY USE BY HIGHLY QUALIFIED AND EXPERIENCED ELECTRICAL ENGINEERS TO EVALUATE THE PERFORMANCE OF CREE POWER SWITCHING DEVICES. THE BOARD SHOULD NOT BE USED AS ALL OR PART OF A FINISHED END PRODUCT. THIS BOARD IS NOT SUITABLE FOR SALE TO OR USE BY CONSUMERS AND CAN BE HIGHLY DANGEROUS IF NOT USED PROPERLY. THIS BOARD IS NOT DESIGNED OR INTENDED TO BE INCORPORATED INTO ANY OTHER PRODUCT FOR RESALE. THE USER SHOULD CAREFULLY REVIEW THE DOCUMENT TO WHICH THESE NOTIFICATIONS ARE ATTACHED AND OTHER WRITTEN USER DOCUMENTATION THAT MAY BE PROVIDED BY CREE (TOGETHER, THE “DOCUMENTATION”) PRIOR TO USE. USE OF THIS BOARD IS AT THE USER’S SOLE RISK. Operation of Board It is important to operate the board within Cree’s recommended specifications and environmental considerations as described in the Documentation. Exceeding specified ratings (such as input and output voltage, current, power, or environmental ranges) may cause property damage. If you have questions about these ratings, please contact Cree at sic_power@cree.com prior to connecting interface electronics (including input power and intended loads). Any loads applied outside of a specified output range may result in adverse consequences, including unintended or inaccurate evaluations or possible permanent damage to the board or its interfaced electronics. Please consult the Documentation prior to connecting any load to the board. If you have any questions about load specifications for the board, please contact Cree at sic_power@cree.com for assistance. Users should ensure that appropriate safety procedures are followed when working with the board as serious injury, including death by electrocution or serious injury by electrical shock or electrical burns can occur if you do not follow proper safety precautions. It is not necessary in proper operation for the user to touch the board while it is energized. When devices are being 25 CPWR-AN17, Rev -, 05-2016 Copyright © 2016 Cree, Inc. All rights reserved.

When the board is connected to an electrical source and for a short time thereafter until board components are fully discharged, some board components will be electrically charged and/or have temperatures greater than 50˚ Celsius. These components may include bulk capacitors, connectors, linear regulators, switching transistors, heatsinks, resistors and SiC diodes that can be identified using a board schematic. Users should contact Cree at sic_powr@cree.com for assistance if a board schematic is not included in the Documentation or if users have questions about a board’s components. When operating the board, users should be aware that these components will be hot and could electrocute or electrically shock the user. As with all electronic evaluation tools, only qualified personnel knowledgeable in handling electronic performance evaluation, measurement, and diagnostic tools should use the board. User Responsibility for Safe Handling and Compliance with Laws Users should read the Documentation and, specifically, the various hazard descriptions and warnings contained in the Documentation, prior to handling the board. The Documentation contains important safety information about voltages and temperatures. Users assume all responsibility and liability for the proper and safe handling of the board. Users are responsible for complying with all safety laws, rules, and regulations related to the use of the board. Users are responsible for (1) establishing protections and safeguards to ensure that a user’s use of the board will not result in any property damage, injury, or death, even if the board should fail to perform as described, intended, or expected, and (2) ensuring the safety of any activities to be conducted by the user or the user’s employees, affiliates, contractors, representatives, agents, or designees in the use of the board. User questions regarding the safe usage of the board should be directed to Cree at sic_power@cree.com. In addition, users are responsible for: ● compliance with all international, national, state, and local laws, rules, and regulations that apply to the handling or use of the board by a user or the user’s employees, affiliates, contractors, representatives, agents, or designees. ● taking necessary measures, at the user’s expense, to correct radio interference in the event that operation of the board causes interference with radio communications. The board may generate, use, and/or radiate radio frequency energy, but it has not been tested for compliance within the limits of computing devices pursuant to Federal Communications 26 CPWR-AN17, Rev -, 05-2016 Copyright © 2016 Cree, Inc. All rights reserved. The information in this document is subject to change without notice.
