Low inductance module design is required for a full SiC power module that can achieve a higher switching speed compared to conventional Si IGBT modules. Using a commercially available 3-D electromagnetic field simulator, the authors have designed and developed a low inductance full SiC power module. The inductance of fabricated module was as low as 14 nH between the terminals - while an Si IGBT counterpart measures about 40 nH with the same switching voltage and current.
