GaN’s Evolution from Science Project to Mainstream Power Conductor

GaN’s Evolution from Science Project to Mainstream Power Conductor

Power-conversion technologies are experiencing the first tectonic shift since the move from bipolar to MOS. That shift, of course, is due to the viral adoption of wide-bandgap power devices. At this point, GaN is more than a specialty technology; it is a broad-scale replacement for silicon MOSFETs in applications ranging from 30 V up to 650 V — a multibillion-dollar market.

功率系统采用GaN的5大误区

功率系统采用GaN的5大误区

我们将在本文讨论客户为何迟迟未采用氮化镓技术的一些最常见原因,氮化镓技术显然是较旧的硅基功率MOSFET的替代技术。在不深入研究详细的统计数据下,按最常发生推导出一系列原因,并理解某些应用比其他应用更侧重氮化镓技术的某些特性。我们的讨论仅限于额定电压低于400 V的器件,因为这是EPC公司的氮化镓场效应晶体管和集成电路的重点应用。

How GaN Integrated Circuits Are Redefining Power Conversion

How GaN Integrated Circuits Are Redefining Power Conversion

Gallium nitride (GaN) power devices have been in production for over 10 years and, beyond just performance and cost improvements, the most significant opportunity for GaN technology to impact the power conversion market comes from the intrinsic ability to integrate multiple devices on the same substrate. This capability will allow monolithic power systems to be designed on a single chip in a more straightforward, higher efficiency, and more cost-effective way.

氮化镓器件缓解了硅器件的问题

氮化镓器件缓解了硅器件的问题

就像生活要面对现实一样,老年人离开舞台而让位给年轻人,硅器件也是需要向现实低头。 随着氮化镓器件的问世和普及,正逐步淘汰旧有可靠的硅器件。 在过去的四十年中,随着功率MOSFET器件的结构、技术和电路拓扑的创新与不断增长的电力需求同步发展,电源管理的效率和成本一直以来得以稳步改善。 但是,在业界发展的新时代,随着硅功率MOSFET器件接近其理论极限,其演进速度下降了很多。 同时,新材料氮化镓的理论性能极限稳步发展,其性能极限比老化的MOSFET器件高出6,000倍,并且比目前市场上最好的氮化镓产品高出300倍。

GaN in Space

GaN in Space

This article discussed an oft forgotten or little-noticed part of the spacecraft enabling travel into outer space---power management in the space vehicle. Wide bandgap semiconductors like gallium nitride (GaN), silicon carbide (SiC), as well as diamond, are looking to be the most promising materials for future electronic components since the discovery of silicon. These technologies, depending upon their design, offer huge advantages in terms of power capability (DC and microwave), radiation insensitivity, high temperature and high frequency operation, optical properties and even low noise capability. Therefore, wide bandgap components are strategically important for the development of next generation space-borne systems. eGaN devices are quickly gaining momentum in the space industry and we will see many more applications for them by NASA and commercial contractors in future programs like Artemis and other programs in countries around the globe pursuing efforts into Space.

PCIM Europe – where power is at the core of innovation

PCIM Europe – where power is at the core of innovation

This year’s PCIM Europe was attended by a record number of visitors, over 12,000. Over half (54%) were from outside Germany. They came to see over 500 exhibitors and while the subject matter was diverse and wide-ranging, there were some themes that emerged. GaN and SiC jostled for attention at this year’s PCIM Europe. Showing the potential that GaN has already realised, Efficient Power Conversion (EPC) had a stand that was well-stocked with examples of the eGaN FET technology that the company introduced in 2009.
