Abstract:
A system includes a voltage converter and a controller for controlling the operation of the voltage converter. The voltage converter includes a plurality of legs, wherein each leg includes a first and a second set of silicon (Si)-based power devices. The first set of Si-based power devices includes a first and second Si-based power devices connected to each other at a first interconnection node and the second set of Si-based power devices includes a third and fourth Si-based power devices connected to each other at a second interconnection node. The first and second set of Si-based power devices are coupled across a first and second DC voltage sources respectively. A first set of Silicon-Carbide (SiC) based power devices is coupled across the first and second interconnection nodes. The system also includes a snubber capacitor connected across the first and the second interconnection nodes.

Claim (Index 9):
The system of  claim 7 , wherein the controller is configured to simultaneously turn off the Si-based power device and the SiC-based power device that carry the load current in series if an output voltage polarity and an output current polarity of the voltage converter are opposite of each other or if the output voltage is zero and the output current polarity is positive.
