Description
The MASTERGAN5 is an advanced power system-in-package integrating a
gate driver and two enhancement mode GaN power transistors in half bridge
configuration. The integrated power GaNs have 650 V drain-source blocking voltage
and R
easily supplied by the integrated bootstrap diode.
The MASTERGAN5 features UVLO protection on both the lower and upper
driving sections, preventing the power switches from operating in low efficiency
or dangerous conditions, and the interlocking function avoids cross-conduction
conditions.
The extended range of the input pins allows easy interfacing with microcontrollers,
DSP units or Hall effect sensors.
The MASTERGAN5 operates in the industrial temperature range, -40°C to 125°C.
The device is available in a compact 9x9 mm QFN package.
of 450 mΩ, while the high side of the embedded gate driver can be
