Abstract:
A switch assembly includes a case and a direct current (DC) electronic solid-state switch coupled to the case. The case covers the DC electronic solid-state switch, and the DC electronic solid-state switch has an on-state and off-state. The DC electronic solid-state switch blocks between 650 volts and 1200 volts in a single direction in an off-state. The DC electronic solid-state switch continuously carries at least 400 amperes direct current with a voltage drop of less than one volt. The DC electronic solid-state switch also includes a plurality of semiconductor dies each forming a MOSFET. The DC electronic solid-state switch also includes a plurality of signal conductors.
