EPC showcasing high-power-density eGaN FETs and ICs in volume customer applications
At the PCIM (Power Conversion and Intelligent Motion) Europe 2021 Digital Days event (3–7 May), Efficient Power Conversion Corp (EPC) of El Segundo, CA, USA is delivering two technical presentations, an educational tutorial, an exhibitor webinar, and participating in panel discussions on GaN technology and applications. The firm is also participating in the event’s virtual exhibition, showing its latest enhancement-mode gallium nitride on silicon (eGaN) power field-effect transistors (FETs) and integrated circuits in customers’ end products that are rapidly adopting eGaN technology.
In the virtual exhibition, EPC experts will be available to discuss eGaN devices in several applications including: high-performance 48V DC-DC power conversion for automotive and advanced computing and applications; high-power nanosecond pulsed laser drivers for light ranging & detection (LiDAR) systems used in robotics, drones and autonomous vehicles (AVs); and precision motor drives for robotics and drones.
Technical presentations and panels featuring EPC’s eGaN FETs and ICs include:
- Bi-Directional 1/16th Brick 48 V – 12 V Converter using Monolithic GaN ePower Stage’, 4 May (9:50am CET);
- ‘A 1 kW eGaN FET-Based LLC Resonant Converter in the 1/8th Power Brick Size for 48V Server Applications’, 4 May (3:45pm CET);
- Exhibitor Webinar: ‘How GaN is Driving Changes in Autonomy, Automotive, and eMobility’, 4 May (4:30–5pm CET);
- Panel Session hosted by Bodo’s Power Systems, ‘GaN-based 3 kW Bi-directional Converter for 48 V Automotive Power’, 5 May (3:55–4:25pm CET);
- Educational Tutorial: ‘Maximizing GaN FET and IC Performance’, 12 May (3–6pm CET).
