Inverters are one of the most critical components of an electric vehicle. They have zero tolerance for failure and are included in the cost of the overall electric drive system. The efficiency of an electric vehicle's inverter is one of the factors that will determine future government incentives. A typical inverter in an EV or HEV will operate in the 10 to 25 kHz range. While this may sound excessive, it is possible to reduce the size and weight of the power module by up to half. Inverters made with SiC with silicon diodes are 20% more efficient than those made with silicon.
