PROJECT INTRODUCTION
This solution used Wolfspeed's SiC devices to instead of traditionaIGBT module for HVAC systems, which can significantly improve thesystem performance and has more cost effective. The compressorcontrol frequency was set to 16KHz to reduces audible noise.Meanwhile, the system efficiency is much higher compared withtraditional IGBT devices, especially with light load. The standby powerconsumption is lower to meet the standby energy efficiency standard
