SemiSouth is a silicon carbide (SiC) based semiconductor company specializing in SiC materials and electrical components for high-power,
high-efficiency, harsh-environment power management and conversion
applications. Typical applications range from power conversion, such as
in computing and network power supplies, to variable-speed drives for
industrial motors and hybrid electric vehicles, to high-power,
harsh-environment military and aerospace applications.
SiC-based semiconductor devices offer significant advantages over
competing products based on silicon, GaAs and other materials for
power-based electronic applications. In some applications, the
properties and parameters of SiC power transistors have allowed for
replacement of up to 10 conventional solid-state devices. Furthermore,
products based on SiC provide up to an order of magnitude improvement
in performance in technical applications where silicon is already
approaching theoretical limits. For these reasons, SiC products will
enable essential technical performance that, in turn, will allow
customers to develop and market innovative and competitive products.
