The use of Silicon Carbide (SiC) MOSFETs significantly improves converter performance by increasing efficiency and reducing costs, to the detriment of electro-magnetic emission and reliability. Implementing a predictive maintenance strategy based on a prognosis tool can mitigate this limitation. This literature review offers a methodological synthesis of prognosis design tools for SiC MOSFETs, while also encompassing studies on IGBTs and silicon-based power MOSFETs where these approaches are transferable. The analysis focuses on wear-out prognosis under nominal operating conditions of standard package device, excluding environmental constraints. Articles published up to 2025 were identified in the OpenAlex database using a keyword-based search and manually filtered according to the study scope.
