Whether designing a motor drive/controller for the next generation of battery-electric vehicles, or a power supply for the latest 5G telecommunication networks, Nexperia’s GaN FETs will be key to your solution. Offering high power performance and high-frequency switching, the design...

The uP1966A from uPI Semiconductor is designed to drive both high-side and low-side GaN FETs in half-bridge topologies. It integrates an internal bootstrap supply and UVLO. The uP1966A has split gate outputs that can operate to several MHz on both high and low side drive channels,...

Amorphous silicon-based Thin-film transistors (TFTs) are the foundation of many modern-day technologies, such as smartphones and flat-panel TVs. Still, it comes with a few drawbacks like performance limitations due to limited carrier mobility. Provoking the researchers in search of...

A group of Researchers from Purdue University in Lafayette, Indiana demonstrated the effect called negative capacitance by making a new type of more energy efficient transistor. This new kind of Field Effect Transistor (FET) proves a theory introduced in 2008 by Supriyo Datta, the...

by Graham Prophet @ edn-europe.com: Representing a step forward in performance and cost, the latest eGaN (gallium nitride) power FETs from Efficient Power Conversion (EPC), EPC2045 and EPC2047, are half the size of prior generation eGaN transistors with significantly higher...

by Graham Prophet @ edn-europe.com: Silego Technology has developed a series of integrated power switches for use in mobile and battery powered products, to carry out power gating of functional blocks within a design; the devices come in sub-mm-size chip scale packages, handle...

by Bob Yirka @ techxplore.com: A team of researchers with members from the University of California and Rice University has found a way to get a flat transistor to defy theoretical limitations on Field Effect Transistors (FETs). In their paper published in the journal Nature, the...

Ken Boak has been working on an open source micro-solar inverter project: We wanted to make a design that uses readily obtainable N-type FETS and an Arduino (more strictly a ATmega328P-PU on a breadboard) to generate the PWM signals and provide simple circuit protection, and load...
