   <p>According to research and consulting firm, IndustryARC, wide bandgap semiconductor technologies, namely SiC-based devices, are likely to shift from development to commercial phase due to growth driven in power electronics applications to enhance power conversion efficiency and minimize power losses. The advancement in power conversion paves the way of SiC-based devices in EV charging, which helps lessen battery charging cycles as well reduce the high cost of battery packs. Integration of SiC devices in on-board charging and DC-to-DC power conversion systems enable higher switching frequency and lower losses. IndustryARC expects the SiC market in EV charging to witness a growth rate of approximately 33 percent until 2024.</p>
   <p>Microsemi is well-positioned with these trends, with its SiC MOSFETs offering 10 times lower failure-in-time (FIT) rate than comparable Si IGBTs at rated voltages with regard to neutron susceptibility. Its SiC SBDs complement its SiC MOSFET robustness with UIS ratings 20 percent higher than competitor parts tested.
