In stock at authorised distributor DigiKey is the Infineon Technologies CoolGaN BDS 40V G3 family.
It delivers the benefits of gallium nitride (GaN) technology to low-voltage power applications, offering significantly reduced switching losses, ultra-fast switching speeds, and improved overall efficiency compared to traditional silicon MOSFETs.
These devices are optimised for high-frequency operation, enabling designers to reduce system size while maintaining excellent performance.
The CoolGaN BDS 40V G3 portfolio is designed to support a wide range of power conversion topologies, providing low RDS(on), low gate charge, and superior figure of merit (FOM).
This combination allows for higher power density and improved thermal efficiency, making these devices ideal for compact, high-performance designs.
To accelerate development, Infineon offers evaluation boards and reference designs that help engineers quickly implement and validate CoolGaN-based solutions, reducing time-to-market and design complexity.
The devices are optimised for high-frequency operation and comes in compact package options for space-constrained designs.
Benefits include higher system efficiency and reduced energy consumption, smaller system size through higher switching frequency, lower heat generation and increased power density.
Applications cover point-of-load (POL) converters, synchronous buck converters, battery-powered systems, low-voltage motor drives (fans, pumps), robotics and drones, server and telecom power delivery and consumer electronics.
