EE News – 650V GaN chip has 800V peak operation for 500W chargers

Navitas Semiconductor has launched a 650V integrated gallium nitride GaN power chip with peak 800V operation for 500W chargers.

The NV6128 GaNFast power IC is a monolithic integration of FET, drive and logic in a 6 x 8 mm PQFN package for high-power mobile and consumer power designs. The 70 mOhm NV6128 represents a 66 percent increase in current capability over the previous version with a proprietary, integrated cooling pad on the package for high-efficiency, high-density power systems.
