Infineon has started sampling enhancement mode and cascode configuration GaN-based platforms under NDA.
They are for applications requiring superior levels of energy efficiency including Switch Mode Power Supplies (SMPS) used in server, telecom, mobile power and consumer goods such as Class D Audio systems.
GaN technology significantly reduces the size and weight of power supplies which will open up new opportunities in end-products such as ultra-thin LED TVs.
Infineon’s expanded offering will include dedicated driver and controller ICs which enable the topologies and higher frequencies that fully leverage the benefits of GaN.
Infineon and Panasonic will jointly introduce devices using Panasonic’s normally-off (enhancement mode) GaN-on-Silicon transistor structure integrated into Infineon’s Surface Mount Device (SMD) packages.
GaN-on-Silicon-based technology delivers increased power density and higher energy efficiency in a smaller footprint compared to Silicon-based solutions, and is, therefore, well suited to a wide range of applications from consumer goods such as Television power supplies to Class D Audio amplifiers to SMPS used in server and telecom equipment.
