Hello, Good morning from india....
I am very new to SiC mosfets and associated gate drivers...I often use optocouplers like TLP250 in most of my power electronic projects, But now i need to clarify whether can i use a Gate driver circuit which is successful in Si MOSFETs but this time for a SiC MOSFETs. Apart from an improved technology Is SiC Mosfets require any special gate drive requirements?
For example, I need to use a 1200V SiC Mosfet from Wolfspeed (https://assets.wolfspeed.com/uploads/2023/08/Wolfspeed_C3M0075120K-A_data_sheet.pdf)....Do anyone have any prior experience of this circuit ?? If yes suggest me a simplest gate driver circuit for this Mosfet !!
Let the requirements be:
1) Need to block a 700V at worst case
2) Drain current is about 6A at peak
