GaN Systems has launched what it claims is the world’s smallest 650V, 15A gallium nitride transistor. With a footprint of just 5.0 x 6.5mm, the GS66504B – one of a family of 650V devices that spans 7A to 200A – is 50% smaller than competing devices.

GaN Systems is the first company to have developed and brought a comprehensive product range of devices with current ratings from 7-250A to the global market – its Island Technology die design, combined with its extremely low inductance and thermally efficient GaNPX packaging and Drive Assist technology means the company’s GaN transistors offer a 40-fold improvement in switching and conduction performance over traditional silicon MOSFETs and IGBTs. Devices are available now through its worldwide distribution network. www.gansystems.com
