The EPC2067 is ideal for applications with demanding requirements for high power density performance including 48 V – 54 V input servers. Lower gate charges and zero reverse recovery losses enable high frequency operation of 1 MHz, and beyond, at high efficiency in a tiny 9.3 mm2 footprint for state-of-the-art power density.

According to Alex Lidow, EPC’s co-founder and CEO, “The EPC2067 makes the ideal switch for the secondary side of the LLC DC-DC converter from 40 V – 60 V to 12 V. This 40-volt device offers improved performance and cost compared with previous-generation 40 V GaN FETs allowing designers to economically improve efficiency and power density.”

Development Board

The EPC90138 development board is a 40 V maximum device voltage, 40 A maximum output current, half bridge with onboard gate drives, featuring the EPC2067 eGaN FETs. This 2” x 2” (50.8 mm x 50.8 mm) board is designed for optimal switching performance and contains all critical components for easy evaluation of the EPC2067.

Price and Availability

The EPC2067 eGaN FET is priced at 1K u/reel at $2.69 each

The EPC90138 development board is priced at $123.75/each

Both the EPC2067 and EPC90138 are available for immediate delivery from Digi-Key at https://www.digikey.com/en/supplier-centers/epc

About EPC

EPC is the leader in enhancement-mode gallium nitride (eGaN®) based power management. eGaN FETs and integrated circuits provide performance many times greater than the best silicon power MOSFETs in applications such as DC-DC converters, remote sensing technology (lidar), motor drives for eMobility, robotics, and drones, and low-cost satellites.
