100 V and 650 V GaN on Si transistors to be featured in August 16^th webinar hosted by IEEE GlobalSpec

Richardson RFPD, Inc. today announced its sponsorship of an August 16^th webinar, hosted by IEEE GlobalSpec and featuring the portfolio of gallium nitride power switching transistors from GaN Systems Inc.

Since launching their product portfolio in 2014, GaN Systems’ enhancement-mode gallium nitride transistor technology has been widely adopted across consumer, enterprise, industrial and transportation markets.

The upcoming webinar will include a review of the fundamentals of GaN technology and GaN Systems’ products and capabilities, including its specialized packaging and critical driver specifications. GaN Systems will review its Island Technology® and GaNPX™ packaging, which allow GaN to be used at higher frequencies and higher currents. Information on switching speed, voltage, current waveforms, efficiencies, thermal specifications, and MTTF data will also be presented, with a comparison of overall performance and reliability with other GaN and silicon MOSFET devices.

Key webinar topics will include:

The basics of GaN transistors
The applications that benefit from GaN
GaN performance characterization, comparison data and drive techniques
Critical driver specifications and industry standard drivers
GaN reliability and failure modes

Explore the Benefits of Gallium Nitride Power Switching Transistors will be presented by Larry Spaziani, GaN Systems VP Sales and Marketing, on August 16, 2016 at 11 a.m. (EDT). The webinar is free to attendees. Online registration is available now.
