Infineon has launched the CoolGaN Drive household, that includes single switches and half-bridges with built-in drivers for compact, environment friendly designs. The household contains CoolGaN Drive 700-V G5 single switches, which combine a transistor and gate driver in PQFN 5×6 and PQFN 6×8 packages. It additionally provides CoolGaN Drive HB 600-V G5 units, which mix two transistors with high-side and low-side gate drivers in a LGA 6×8 bundle.
Relying on the product group, CoolGaN Drive parts embrace a bootstrap diode, loss-free present measurement, and adjustable dV/dt. Additionally they present overcurrent, overtemperature, and short-circuit safety.
These units assist increased switching frequencies, resulting in smaller, extra environment friendly techniques with diminished BoM, decrease weight, and a smaller carbon footprint. The GaN HEMTs are appropriate for longer-range e-bikes, moveable energy instruments, and lighter-weight family home equipment, reminiscent of vacuums, followers, and hairdryers.
Samples of the half-bridge units can be found now. Single-switch samples shall be accessible beginning This fall 2024. For extra details about Infineon’s GaN HEMT lineup, click on right here.
