Leapers Semiconductor announced a new series of 1400V #SiC power modules in already familiar E0 and ED3S packages. Today some applications tend to increase bus voltage, and using 1200V SiC power modules can no longer correspond to voltage requirements. Using 1700V SiC devices can solve the problem, but it comes with a price. At the moment the new series 1400V SiC modules come in Half-Bridge, H-Bridge, and Boost topologies.

𝘿𝙤 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙪𝙣𝙙𝙚𝙧𝙨𝙩𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙂𝙖𝙉? 𝗜𝘀 𝗶𝘁 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘁𝗼 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗰𝗵? Gallium nitride (GaN), with the chemical formula GaN, stands as a crystal-like semiconductor material with unique properties. Initially employed in LEDs during the 1990s, GaN has evolved into a revolutionary material, transcending its use in solar panels to now replacing silicon in transistors. 𝗔𝗱𝘃𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗴𝗲𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗚𝗮𝗡 𝗧𝗲𝗰𝗵𝗻𝗼𝗹𝗼𝗴𝘆 The reduction in transistor size allows GaN USB chargers to be physically smaller, a notable departure from older silicon technology chargers. More importantly, the increased efficiency is a game-changer, as it minimizes waste heat production, addressing concerns of overheating and reducing the need for excessive cooling. GaN technology boasts an impressive capability to handle modern USB-C chargers, accommodating power loads of 100W and beyond. #zutBe #GaN #techadvancements #techexplained

Transphorm has once again teamed up with Weltrend Semiconductor, Inc. to announce availability of a 100 watt USB-C PD Power Adapter Reference Design that leverages our SuperGaN SiP to achieve 92.7% efficiency in a QRF topology! Weltrend’s two SuperGaN adapter boards to date—100 watts and 65 watts—deploy the same SuperGaN SiP (WT7162RHUG24A), demonstrating how our GaN solutions help help customers achieve economies of scale and lower cost implementations compared to competitive solutions. Philip Zuk, SVP, Business Development and Marketing at Transphorm, shares, “The SiP is a simple, normally-off solution that does not require protection, a driver, or an external controller. Add to that the ability for the same SiP to perform in a 65-watt and 100-watt power adapter board…now we’re seeing the inherent versatility and robustness of GaN really shine. And that only comes from Transphorm’s SuperGaN platform today.” Check out all the details and device specs here: https://lnkd.in/g3spCzcT #GaN #GalliumNitride #SiP #Semiconductor #PowerSupply #Innovation #Technology #TGAN #WBG
