Ultra-Compact 100 V GaN FET for High-Efficiency Power Applications

Ultra-Compact 100 V GaN FET for High-Efficiency Power Applications

Nexperia has introduced the GANE7R0-100CBA, a cutting-edge enhancement-mode Gallium Nitride (GaN) field-effect transistor designed for high-efficiency power applications. It has a drain-source breakdown voltage of over 100 V, a gate threshold voltage of 1.1 V, and a drain-source on-resistance of less than 7 milliohms. This GaN FET has a continuous drain current of 29 A and power dissipation of up to 182 W. It extends the company’s focus on compact, efficient power management solutions. This 100 V device is packaged in an ultra-compact 2.5 x 1.5 mm wafer-level chip-scale package (WLCSP).

As devices become smaller and power demands increase, efficient energy conversion in tight spaces is crucial. With its ultra-low resistance, rapid switching, and miniaturized package, the GANE7R0-100CBA is poised to accelerate advancements in fast charging, telecom infrastructure, motor control, and portable electronics. Nexperia’s product release emphasizes GaN’s role in achieving higher efficiencies and power densities in next-gen applications.

Encased in a WLCSP6 (SOT8090) footprint, the chip supports modern PCB design with 6-bump wafer-level packaging. For designers seeking compact, high-performance GaN solutions, the GANE7R0-100CBA represents a significant leap forward, delivering exceptional efficiency and power in a remarkably small footprint.
