MasterGaN family extended for asymmetrical topologies
Building upon the advantages of STMicroelectronics’ MasterGaN platform, MasterGaN2 is the first in the new family to contain two asymmetric gallium-nitride (GaN) transistors, delivering an integrated GaN solution suited to soft-switching and active-rectification converter topologies.
Pasternack unveils new line of bi-directional amplifiers
Pasternack has released a new line of bi-directional amplifiers that are used to transmit high-quality signals while amplifying Rx signals with advanced LNA to produce the highest possible data rates. Pasternack has added four new models to its existing line of bi-directional amplifiers, making a total of six different models now available.
GaN Systems launches first product for automotive market
GaN Systems hasannounced the release and availability of the first product in a family of new 650V, 60A transistors for the automotive market. TheGS-065-060-5-T-Ais designed to meet automotive reliability standards including AEC-Q101 qualification and GaN Systems’ AutoQual+ testing and qualification.

Rad-hard GaN power transistors
GaN transistors have been designed for critical applications in the high reliability or commercial satellite space environments. The family of 40 to 300V radiation hardened (rad-hard) GaN transistors are by EPC Space and range from 4.0 to 30A.
DC/DC buck converters for performance eMotorsport
BrightLoop Converters has greatly reduced the size, cost and improved reliability of its latest BB SP DC/DC buck converters thanks to Efficient Power Conversion Corporation’s (EPC) EPC2029 enhancement-mode gallium nitride (eGaN) FET transistors.
Microchip to invest $20M in a development centre
Microchip Technology has announced that it is investing $20M to create a new development centre based in Cork, Ireland. The new facility will open during Q1 CY21 and create 60 new jobs over the next three years and approximately 200 jobs within the next seven years.
Automotive GaN FET features active power management
Texas Instruments has expanded its high voltage power management portfolio with the next generation of 650V and 600V Gallium Nitride (GaN) Field-Effect Transistors (FETs) for automotive and industrial applications.
Nexperia plans to grow production and increase R&D spend
Nexperiahas confirmed that it will be making significant additional global investments in manufacturing capacity and research and development during 2021. The new investments are in line with a growth strategy that last year saw Wingtech Technology, Nexperia’s parent company, commit $1.85bn to building a new 300mm power semiconductor wafer fab in Lingang, Shanghai. This factory, which will go live in 2022, will have an estimated annual outp...
