IEEE Power Electronics Society (PELS) Webinar: “Getting the Most from GaN Transistor and IC Chip-scale Packaging”

IEEE Power Electronics Society (PELS) Webinar: “Getting the Most from GaN Transistor and IC Chip-scale Packaging”

On November 3rd, IEEE PELS will offer a webinar by Alex Lidow and Michael de Rooij discussing the design and PCB manufacturing methods for using chip-scale packaged GaN power devices.

EL SEGUNDO, Calif.— October 2016 — Efficient Power Conversion Corporation (EPC) experts on the design and use of gallium nitride transistors will conduct a one-hour webinar sponsored by the IEEE Power Electronics Society (PELS) on November 3rd from 11:00 AM to 12:00 PM (EDT).

GaN transistors and integrated circuits are significantly faster and smaller than their silicon ancestors. This has enabled many new applications such as envelope tracking, LiDAR, wireless energy transfer, and enhanced medical imaging. In this webinar, we will discuss the design and PCB manufacturing methods users need to maximize the speed and size advantages required for embracing the chip-scale package.

The presenters, Alex Lidow, EPC CEO and co-founder, and Michael de Rooij, Vice President of Applications Engineering, are the featured speakers. Both are widely published including being co-authors of GaN Transistors for Efficient Power Conversion, the first textbook on the design and applications of gallium nitride transistors.

About EPC

EPC is the leader in enhancement mode gallium nitride based power management devices. EPC was the first to introduce enhancement-mode gallium-nitride-on-silicon (eGaN) FETs as power MOSFET replacements in applications such as DC-DC converters, wireless power transfer, envelope tracking, RF transmission, power inverters, remote sensing technology (LiDAR), and Class-D audio amplifiers with device performance many times greater tha
