Navitas Semiconductor has unveiled the NV6288, a cutting-edge GaNFast™ power IC designed to elevate motor drive and power conversion systems with unmatched efficiency, protection, and integration. Engineered with GaNSense™ technology, the NV6288 combines high-performance enhancement-mode GaN FETs, integrated gate drivers, and real-time sensing capabilities to deliver superior switching speeds, energy savings, and system robustness.
Key Features of the NV6288
- Wide Vcc operating range: 10–24 V
- Integrated high-side bootstrap and shoot-through protection
- Autonomous low-power standby and synchronous rectification modes
- Accurate bi-directional lossless current sensing
- Programmable turn-on/off dV/dt control for both high- and low-side FETs
- 650 V continuous voltage rating, 800 V transient rating
- 2 MHz switching frequency
- Compact 8×10 mm QFN package with enhanced thermal pads
- 20-year limited warranty and certified CarbonNeutral® footprint
The NV6288’s integrated GaNSense™ motor drive technology eliminates the need for external current-sensing resistors, reducing conduction losses and PCB hotspots. This innovation boosts system efficiency by up to 0.5% in high-frequency applications like boost PFC circuits, while also enabling precise over-temperature and short-circuit protection. Navitas emphasizes environmental responsibility with RoHS, Pb-free, and REACH compliance. The NV6288 contributes to up to 40% energy savings compared to silicon-based solutions and supports a system-level reduction of 4 kg CO2 per unit.
Designed for a wide range of topologies—including ACF, buck, boost, LLC, full-bridge, and motor drive inverters—the NV6288 supports both AC-DC and DC-DC conversion. Its autonomous synchronous rectification and standby modes further optimize performance in light-load and freewheeling conditions.
