| IC revision | 1.0 |
The EPC9148 demonstration board is a 60 V maximum input voltage,12.5 A maximum output current, 19 V output voltage, ultra-thin threelevel synchronous buck converter with only 3.5 mm component height. It features the 40 V EPC2055 and the 100 V EPC2053 and EPC2038 GaN FETs and the new Würth Elektronik super thin inductor 7443762504022. The purpose of this demonstrate board is to simplify the evaluation of GaN FET-based multi-level synchronous buck converter.
