Abstract
A system for a power switch module for an inverter includes a Silicon (Si) power switch configured to pass current in an on state based on an Si gate driving signal, a Silicon Carbide (SiC) power switch configured to pass current in an on state based on an SiC gate driving signal, an Si gate driver configured to provide the Si gate driving signal to operate the Si power switch when a current requirement of the inverter is at or above a threshold, and an SiC gate driver configured to provide the SiC gate driving signal to operate the SiC power switch when the current requirement of the inverter is below the threshold.
