NX-HB-GAN039-TSC

NX-HB-GAN039-TSC is a 3.5KW half-bridge evaluation board with top-side cooled GaN FETs. The top-side cooled half-bridge evaluation board that provides the elements of a simple buck or boost converter. This enables the basic study of the switching characteristics and efficiency achievable with Nexperia’s 650V GaN FETs. The circuit can be configured for synchronous rectification, in either buck or boost mode. Selection jumpers allow the use of a single logic input or separate high / low level inputs. The high-voltage input and output can operate at up to 400V DC, with a power output of up to 3.5KW dependent upon cooling, ambient temperature and switching frequency. The inductor provided is intended for efficient operation at 100KHz, however, other inductors and frequencies may be used.

• 400VDC max high-voltage input/output
• 10V min, 18V max auxiliary supply
• Logic inputs range from 0 to 5V (nominal )
• Configuration dependent switching frequency
