Wolfspeed (NYSE: WOLF) announced the successful production of a single crystal 300mm (12-inch) silicon carbide (SiC) wafer on January 13, 2026, marking a major technology milestone. Backed by a portfolio of more than 2,300 issued and pending patents, Wolfspeed says the 300mm platform enables wafer-scale integration across power, optical, photonic, thermal, and RF domains and aims to support AI infrastructure, AR/VR systems, and advanced power devices while strengthening domestic semiconductor supply chain resilience.
Wolfspeed (NYSE: WOLF) announced that its silicon carbide MOSFETs will power onboard charger systems for Toyota battery electric vehicles, underscoring adoption of silicon carbide for high-voltage automotive power systems.
The company highlighted its U.S.-based supply chain and domestic manufacturing as supporting Toyota's quality and reliability requirements and said silicon carbide enables higher efficiency, shorter charging times, and reduced energy loss across the vehicle lifespan.
Wolfspeed (NYSE: WOLF) received $698.6 million in cash tax refunds from the IRS under the Advanced Manufacturing Investment Credit (Section 48D), marking a major step toward monetizing an approximately $1 billion accrued refund balance. In fiscal 2025 the company previously received $186.5 million related to fiscal 2023 and 2024 filings.
Following receipt of the funds, Wolfspeed's cash balance is approximately $1.5 billion. Per its agreement with senior secured lenders, the company plans to allocate $192.2 million of the refund to retire roughly $175 million of outstanding debt, with remaining proceeds for general corporate purposes as it advances the ramp of its 200mm silicon carbide manufacturing footprint and growth into AI data centers, aerospace and defense, industrial and energy, and EV markets.
Wolfspeed (NYSE:WOLF) launched 1200V silicon carbide six-pack power modules on November 17, 2025, targeting high-power e-mobility and industrial inverters.
The modules pair Gen 4 SiC MOSFETs with advanced packaging to deliver 3X power cycling capability versus best-in-class competitors, 15% higher inverter current capability in an industry-standard footprint, and a 22% RDS(ON) improvement at 125°C versus the prior generation. Wolfspeed also reports ~60% lower turn-on energy (EON), 30% lower switching losses from a soft-body diode, and 50% lower VDS overshoot during reverse recovery.
Samples are available now with full distributor availability expected in early 2026. The company positions the modules as drop-in IGBT replacements to improve reliability, efficiency, and total cost of ownership for heavy-duty, construction, and agricultural e-mobility platforms.
