Efficient Power Conversion (EPC) Widens the Performance Gap with the Aging Power MOSFET with “Off-the-Shelf” High Performance 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 power converters with greater than 98% efficiency.

EL SEGUNDO, Calif.—July 2014 — Efficient Power Conversion Corporation (EPC) announces the introduction of six new-generation power transistor products and corresponding development boards. Ranging from 30 V to 200 V, these products provide significant reduction in RDS(on) greatly increasing their output current capability in applications such as high power density DC-DC converters, Point-of-Load (POL) converters, synchronous rectification in DC/DC and AC/DC converters, motor drives, LED lighting, and industrial automation.
