Designed for 48V intermediate voltage bus architectures, the EPC2367 significantly advances the performance of power systems by reducing power loss, increasing efficiency, and enabling more compact and cost-effective designs. This new device sets a benchmark in performance compared to both previous-generation GaN and traditional silicon MOSFET solutions.
Key advantages of the EPC2367
- Ultra-low on-resistance (RDS(on)): 1.2mΩ, a ~30% improvement over previous generation best-in-class devices.
- Smaller footprint: 3.3 × 3.3mm QFN package, reducing PCB space and enhancing thermal performance.
- Best-in-class switching Figures of Merit (FoM): EPC2367 outperforms competitors in hard and soft-switching applications, delivering superior efficiency and lower power losses.
- Enhanced thermal performance: Operates cooler under load, improving system reliability and enabling higher power densities.
- Outstanding temperature cycling reliability: 4× the thermal cycling capability compared to previous GaN generations, ensuring robust long-term operation.
Superior in-circuit performance
The EPC2367 has been rigorously tested in hard and soft-switching applications. Performance results demonstrate higher efficiency across the full power range, with significant power loss reductions. In a 1MHz, 1.25kW system, EPC2367 reduces power losses while achieving 1.25× the output power compared to previous GaN and Si MOSFET alternatives.
“The EPC2367 advances GaN technology with ultra-low on-resistance and superior thermal cycling, enabling engineers to boost efficiency and power density in AI servers, robotics, and automotive systems,” said Alex Lidow, EPC CEO and Co-Founder.
