A voltage converter may include a first set of silicon (Si)-based power devices coupled to a first direct current (DC) voltage source and a second set of Si-based power devices coupled to a second DC voltage source. The voltage converter may also include a first set of silicon-carbide (SiC)-based power devices coupled to the first set of Si-based power devices and to the second set of Si-based power devices. Each SiC-based power device of the first set of SiC-based power devices may switch at a higher frequency as compared to each Si-based power device of the first and second sets of the Si-based power electronic devices.
