EPC2014 – Enhancement Mode Power Transistor
VDSS , 40 V
RDS(ON) , 16 mW
ID , 10 A
Gallium Nitride is grown on Silicon Wafers and processed using standard CMOS equipment lever-
aging the infrastructure that has been developed over the last 55 years. GaN’s exceptionally high
electron mobility and low temperature coecient allows very low R
DS(ON)
, while its lateral device
structure and majority carrier diode provide exceptionally low Q
G
and zero Q
RR
. The end result is a
device that can handle tasks where very high switching frequency, and low on-time are benecial
as well as those where on-state losses dominate.
EPC2014 eGaN® FETs are supplied only in
passivated die form with solder bumps
