Cambridge GaN Devices Introduces 650 V GaN HEMT for Industrial SMPS and Inverters. The CGD65A130S2 is an enhancement mode GaN-on-silicon power transistor, exploiting the unique material properties of GaN to deliver high current, high breakdown voltage, and high switching frequency for a wide range of electronics applications.
The CGD65A130S2 features CGD’s ICeGaN gate technology enabling compatibility with virtually all gate drivers and controller chips available. The integrated current sense function eliminates the need for a separate current sense resistor and the associated efficiency losses. Because no external sense resistor is needed, the device can be directly soldered to the large copper area of the ground plane, improving the thermal performance and simplifying the thermal design.
It comes in a DFN 8 x 8 SMD package to support high-frequency operation while ensuring the highest thermal performance.
