65W ACF GaN charger reference design released
GaNSystems has announced a new reference design for the highest power density, high efficiency65W Active Clamp Flyback (ACF) GaN chargerin collaboration with Silanna Semiconductor. The reference design is now available at Silanna Semiconductor and provides an easy design for ACF USB-C PD GaN chargers, reducing design cyclesand product time to market for customers.
Radiation-hardened gallium nitride transistors launched
EPC has announced the introduction of a new family of radiation-hardened gallium nitride transistors and integrated circuits. With higher breakdown strength, faster switching speed, higher thermal conductivity and lower on-resistance, power devices based on GaN significantly outperform silicon-based devices.
GaN power transistor prices drop below $1.00
GaN Systemshas announced that its low current, high volume GaN power transistors have fallen below $1.00. These transistors are commonly used in GaN chargers and AC adapters for smartphones and laptop applications and a wide variety of consumer and industrial applications.
Wireless charging in higher power applications and EVs
Eggtronic has announced E2WATT, a new AC power technology that will boost the power, efficiency, charging distance and data transmission capabilities of wireless charging applications. Reportedly offering efficiency comparable with the best conventional wired AC adapters, E2WATT provides the foundation for taking future mobile charging designs into new segments including laptops, AV equipment, and even home appliances and electric vehicles.

Power conversion demo board delivers high power density
EPC has announced the availability of theEPC9149, a 1kW-capable 48V input to 12V output LLC power conversion demo board that operates as a DC transformer with a conversion ratio of 4:1. This demonstration board features the 100VEPC2218and 40VEPC2024 GaN FETs.
InnoSwitch4-CZ flyback switcher ICs launched
Power Integrations has announced theInnoSwitch 4-CZfamily of high frequency, zero voltage switching (ZVS) flyback switcher ICs. InnoSwitch4-CZ devices incorporate a robust 750V primary switch using Power Integrations’ PowiGaN technology and a novel high frequency active clamp flyback controller to facilitate a new class of ultra-compact chargers suitable for phones, tablets, and laptops.
Cleaning in EV battery production with turnkey machine
In line with the rise of the EV industry, Laserax has released a turnkey solution made specifically to clean battery modules on conveyor lines. The Battery Cleaning Machine can be powered by up to 500W of laser power to minimise cycle time when preparing surfaces for welding. It also offers unmatched cleaning quality assisted by cameras.
High level of physical protection for POS terminals
POS terminals (point-of-sale) are not sufficiently protected against physical attacks. Attackers can access sensitive data (such as credit card number and PIN codes) using probes or mini-drills. An additional security element in the security caps of the terminals can reliably prevent such attacks.
