SiC—Silicon Carbide Webinar #7:
SiC Planar and Trench MOSFETs: Design, Fabrication, and Key Applications
Silicon Carbide (SiC) MOSFETs exploit the material’s favorable properties, which allow for highly efficient power devices with reduced form-factor and cooling requirements. Having been commercially introduced in 2011, SiC MOSFETs have gone through several generations of improvements and are currently offered in planar and trench configurations by major semiconductor chip manufacturers. This webinar will provide an impartial overview of planar/trench design and fabrication aspects, highlight their key competitive advantages, and provide an independent overview of what real-world converters require in terms of application-specific performance parameters. Exemplary applications to be discussed include aviation, servo drivers, energy storage, and traction drives.

Hardware is at the heart of computing systems. However, recent years have seen increased attacks exploiting hardware vulnerabilities and exploits, which even traditional software-based protections cannot prevent. Hardware fuzzing has shown promise in detecting vulnerabilities in large-scale designs like modern processors. In this talk, we will describe the hardware vulnerabilities in hardware description languages, such as Verilog and VHDL. Then, we will explain a new and radical approach called hardware fuzzing to find these vulnerabilities and detail how fuzzing techniques can be combined with existing formal verification techniques to detect vulnerabilities efficiently. Finally, we will discuss a strategy for pinpointing vulnerabilities to accelerate the mitigation process and briefly talk about improving the efficiency of hardware fuzzing using ML/AI techniques, such as multi-armed bandit (MAB) and large language models (LLM).

The FDA’s Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) launched the voluntary Total Product Life Cycle (TPLC) Advisory Program (TAP) Pilot to help spur more rapid development of high-quality, safe, effective, and innovative medical devices that are critical to public health. TAP’s primary goal is to expedite patient access to innovative medical devices by providing early, frequent, and strategic communications with the FDA and by facilitating engagement with other key parties for developers of devices of public health importance. To achieve this goal, a dedicated cadre of FDA TAP Advisors proactively provide solutions-focused engagement that is tailored to each TAP Innovator’s needs in advancing devices to market and patient access. In this seminar, FDA TAP Advisors will discuss this pilot program and provide participants input on when in their regulatory journey TAP may be an option for them.
