Renesas Electronics 650V 34A GaN FETs

Renesas Electronics 650V 34A GaN (Gallium Nitride) FETs are normally-off devices using Renesas Electronics's Gen IV platform. The FETs combine a high voltage GaN HEMT with a low voltage silicon MOSFET. The Gen IV SuperGaN® platform uses advanced epi and patented design technologies to simplify manufacturability while improving efficiency over silicon via lower gate charge, output capacitance, crossover loss, and reverse recovery charge. GaN FETs have inherently superior performance over traditional silicon FETs, offering faster switching and better thermal performance.
