| dc.description.abstract | Bidirectional switches are highly required power electronics units for the design of power converters, especially for direct matrix converters. This article presents the design and implementation of a compact bidirectional switch based on SiC-MOSFET technology, aimed at high-efficiency, high-density power electronics applications. The proposed architecture employs surface-mount components, optimizing both the occupied area and electrical performance. The selected switching device is the IMBG120R053M2H from Infineon, a SiC-MOSFET known for its low on-resistance, high reverse-voltage blocking capability, and excellent switching speed. To drive the power devices, the UCC21521 gate driver integrates two independent isolated outputs in a single package, enabling precise control and reduced electromagnetic interference (EMI). The developed design supports bidirectional current conduction and voltage blocking, offering a robust and scalable solution for next-generation power converters. Design criteria, simulation results, and experimental validations are discussed. | es |
