GaN transistors (GaN HEMTs)
CoolGaN™ Transistors - highly efficient normally-off devices ranging from 60 V up to 700 V.
Infineon's gallium nitride power transistors are driving decarbonization and digitalization, while enabling high-frequency operation, increasing efficiency and reducing system size in consumer and industrial applications. They are available in voltage classes from 60 V to 700 V and in a broad variety of packages.
- 60 V - 700 V GaN transistors
- Top and bottom side cooled packages
- Ultrafast switching-speed
- Superior FOMs
- Continous current: 4 A - 100 A
- RDS(on)typ. from 1.4 mΩ to 450 mΩ
- Enhancement mode (e-mode)
- No reverse-recovery charge
- Ultra-low gate and output charge
- Adapters and chargers
With their superior switching speed, GaN transistors enable high power density, reduce energy losses, and increase efficiency in a wide range of applications. This means that designers can create smaller, lighter, and more compact systems delivering high performance.
Compared to traditional Si switches, GaN transistors have higher thermal conductivity, allowing for better heat dissipation and improved reliability. CoolGaN™ Transistors are designed to be robust, withstanding high voltage spikes and ensuring a longer lifespan.
The portfolio in the 60 V to 200 V range housed in the PQFN 3x3 and PQFN 3x5 packages has a moisture sensitivity level (MSL) rating of 1, which makes them suitable for standard storage and handling conditions.
In the high-voltage arena (≥600 V), we offer a very broad variety of SMD packages, ranging from TOLL, TOLT, ThinPAK 5x6, DFN 8x8, to top- and bottom-side cooled DSO. These packages cater to diverse design requirements and offer a perfect blend of compact size, improved thermal performance, cost-effectiveness, and design flexibility.
The right gate driver IC is inevitable, as it can help designers to achieve the best performance while minimizing costs. Our broad portfolio comprises single- and dual-channel isolated and non-isolated gate drivers tailor-made for GaN. Therein, also a family of single-channel non-isolated devices with truly differential inputs, namely, the EiceDRIVER™ 1EDN TDI family.
