SiC vs GaN Head-to-Head Performance Comparison

A lot of engineers don’t have a good feel for how gallium-nitride FETs perform compared to silicon-carbide equivalents. So 氮化镓系统 (GaN Systems) devised two 650-V, 15-A switching supplies using SiC and GaN to see how they compared. In an interview conducted by WTWH Media’s Lee Teschler, Jim Witham explains the differences that emerged in this…

PSDtv – 氮化镓系统 (GaN Systems) on Customer’s Applications of GaN Transistors

In this episode of PSDtv from PCIM Europe 2017, Jim Witham, CEO of 氮化镓系统 (GaN Systems) discusses benefits of wired and wireless charging using GaN transistors. Jim discusses a wired charger for notebook computers that generates a power density of 35 W/cubic inch…which is 3x the normal charger power density. Also shown is a wireless…

Wireless Charging Using GaN Transistors

Charge pads can now charge multiple wireless devices simultaneously thanks to gallium-nitride FETs. In this short demo, WTWH Media’s Lee Teschler interviews 氮化镓系统 (GaN Systems)’ Jim Witham who described a 70-W charging pad built by Gill Electronics to the AirFuel standard that has a two-inch throw. This feat is made possible only through the use…

How GaN Enhancement-mode HEMT devices improve the performance of Power Systems

This video was produced by Aspencore and posted to Electronics Know-how. Power system companies continue adopting gallium nitride (GaN) transistors in place of silicon IGBTs and MOSFETs. By designing GaN into power systems and modules, customers have launched a stream of smaller, lighter and less costly electronic systems into the market. These products exhibit dramatic…

Ricardo Discusses Using GaN Transistors in Automotive Systems

The auto industry is poised to begin a shift from silicon chips to smaller and more efficient “wide-bandgap” semiconductors made with gallium nitride, says Karina Morley, Ricardo’s commercial director, Automotive. These advanced chips will be 20%-50% smaller than the silicon semiconductors they replace. That will enable far more compact electronic control modules. Gallium nitride chips…

GS66508T-EVBHB High Current Half Bridge Evaluation Board

The GS66508T-EVBHB evaluation board (EVB) is designed to demonstrate the performance of 氮化镓系统 (GaN Systems)’ 650V GaN enhancement mode high electron mobility transistor (E-HEMT) devices. The EVB is a fully functional half bridge power stage consisting of two 650V GaN E-HEMTs (top side cooled GS66508T, 30A/55mΩ), gate drive power supply, half bridge gate drivers and…
