Denso SiC MOSFET from Toyota Mirai 2 G9A1062020 Fuel Cell Converter
Explore how automakers like Toyota are using SiC technology in critical systems for energy-efficient vehicle electrification. Learn about the SiC-based F17C6_IPM_VZ112 power module in the Toyota Mirai II, supplied by DENSO.
Automakers are increasingly exploring the use of SiC technology in critical systems such as main inverters, onboard chargers (OBC), and DC/DC converters for future vehicle models. Toyota, a leader in embracing SiC technology, stands out as the first manufacturer to incorporate SiC MOSFETs in a fuel cell electric vehicle (FCEV), paving the way for more energy-efficient and advanced vehicle electrification solutions. The F17C6_IPM_VZ112, a SiC-based power module, is observed in the fuel cell boost converter of Toyota Mirai II. This module is supplied by DENSO, a key partner and supplier to Toyota, which developed its REVOSIC® (Revolution of SiC) technology to integrate SiC power semiconductors (transistors and diodes) into automotive applications.
