US-based Navitas Semiconductor has formed a partnership with BrightLoop to support BrightLoop’s latest series of hydrogen fuel cell chargers with its automotive-qualified Gen 3 Fast (G3F) silicon-carbide MOSFETs for heavy-duty agricultural transportation equipment.

BrightLoop’s systems provide power conversion efficiencies over 98% and power densities up to 60 kW/L. The company’s high-voltage (HV), high-power multiverters paired with its Power Flow Processor technology are designed for both AC and DC applications, such as energy management scenarios for fuel cells and heavy-duty applications, as well as HV network adaptation.

BrightLoop is incorporating Navitas’s G3F SiC MOSFETs into its 250 kW HV DC-DC converter, which has an output of 950 VDC at 480 A and can be paralleled to deliver megawatt power capability. 

Navitas’ GeneSiC trench-assisted planar technology delivers high-speed, cool-running operation for high-power, high-reliability applications. G3F SiC MOSFETs deliver high efficiency and high-speed performance, enabling up to 25° C lower case temperature, and up to three times longer life than SiC products from other vendors, according to the company.

“Navitas offers leading-edge SiC technology where efficiency, ruggedness, and reliability are paramount. Our high power-density, smart, efficient, and scalable multiverters enhance the quantity and quality of energy delivered to our customers,” said Florent Liffran, CEO and founder of BrightLoop.
