Efficient Power Conversion (EPC) Widens the Performance Gap with 7 mΩ 200 V, and 5 mΩ 150 V Gallium Nitride Power Transistors

Efficient Power Conversion (EPC) Widens the Performance Gap with 7 mΩ 200 V, and 5 mΩ 150 V Gallium Nitride Power Transistors

eGaN®power transistors continue to raise the bar for power conversion performance. Lower on-resistance, lower capacitance, higher current, and superior thermal performance enable high power density converters.

EL SEGUNDO, Calif.—May 2015 — Efficient Power Conversion Corporation (EPC) announces the introduction of two eGaN FETs that raise the bar for power conversion performance. These products have a maximum operating temperature of 150°C and pulsed currents capabilities of 260 A (150 V EPC2033) and 140 A (EPC2034). Applications include DC-DC converters, synchronous rectification in DC/DC and AC/DC converters, motor drives, LED lighting, and industrial automation.

These products further expand EPC’s family of “Relaxed Pitch” devices featuring a 1 mm ball pitch. The wider pitch allows for placement of additional and larger vias under the device to enable high current carrying capability despite the extremely small 2.6 mm x 4.6 mm footprint.
