Transphorm Gen IV SuperGaN® FETs
Transphorm Gen IV SuperGaN® FETs are normally off devices enabling AC-DC bridgeless totem-pole PFC designs. These FETs feature a high voltage GaN High Electron Mobility Transistor (HEMT) with a low voltage silicon MOSFET and offer superior reliability and performance. The Gen IV SuperGaN platform has advanced epi and patented design technologies that simplify manufacturability. This design technology improves efficiency over silicon with a low gate charge, output capacitance, crossover loss, and reverse recovery charge. Transphorm Gen IV FETs are available in a variety of options for datacom, computing, lighting, automotive, and other applications.
