EPC90156: 100 V, 65 A GaN-based half-bridge development board

Overview

TopologyBuck-Boost Converter
IC revision2.0

Description

The EPC90156 is a half bridge development board with onboard gate drives, featuring the 100 V rated EPC2361 eGaN® field effect transistor (FET). The purpose of this development board is to simplify the evaluation process of the EPC2361 by including all the critical components on a single board that can be easily connected into the majority of existing converter topologies.The EPC90156 development board measures 2” x 2” and contains two EPC2361 eGaN FETs in a half bridge configuration and one EPC2038 eGaN FET used to augment the bootstrap supply. The EPC90156 features the uPI Semiconductor uP1966E gate driver. The board also contains all critical components and the layout supports optimal switching performance. There are also various probe points to facilitate simple waveform measurement and efficiency calculation. A block diagram of the circuit is given in figure 1.
