Notes
Why it is interesting: 1200 V SiC on the outer switches and Si IGBTs on the neutral-clamp path, so it is a clean reference for a mixed-semiconductor T-type leg. It can run as a 2-level or a 3-level inverter on the same hardware, which makes the switching-loss difference measurable. The vin range shown is the stated nominal (800 V) to maximum (1000 V); the minimum MPPT voltage is not stated on the product page.
Watch out: the 99 % vs 98.5 % discrepancy on the vendor page. Use the test-report curve, not the headline number.
