7 Important Precautions

Warning: Handling devices with high voltages involves risk to life. It is imperative to comply with all respective precautions and safety regulations.

Microchip assumes that the gate drive board is mounted on the SiC MOSFET prior to start-up testing. It is recommended that the user check that the SiC MOSFET power modules are operating inside the Specified Operating Area (SOA) as specified by the module manufacturer, including short circuit testing under very low load conditions.
