EPC2012 – Enhancement Mode Power Transistor
VDSS , 200 V NEW PRODUCT
RDS(ON) , 100 mW EFFICIENT POWER CONVERSION
ID , 3 A HAL
Gallium Nitride is grown on Silicon Wafers and processed using standard CMOS equipment leverag-
ing the infrastructure that has been developed over the last 55 years. GaN’s exceptionally high elec-
tron mobility and low temperature coefficient allows very low RDS(ON), while its lateral device structure
and majority carrier diode provide exceptionally low QG and zero QRR. The end result is a device that
can handle tasks where very high switching frequency, and low on-time are beneficial as well as
those where on-state losses dominate.
EPC2012 eGaN® FETs are supplied only in
passivated die form with solder bars
