New from International Rectifier is a family of integrated power stage products utilising the company’s advanced Gallium Nitride (GaN)-based power device technology platform. The iP2010 and iP2011 family of devices is designed for multiphase and point-of-load (POL) applications including servers, routers, switches and general purpose POL DC-DC converters.
The devices integrate a sophisticated, fast PowIRtune driver IC matched to a multiswitch monolithic GaN-based power device. These devices are mounted in a flip-chip package platform to deliver high efficiency and higher switching frequency (up to 5 MHz) than silicon-based integrated power stage devices. The iP2010 features an input voltage range of 7 to 13,2 V and output voltage range of 0,6 to 5,5 V with an output current up to 30 A. The device operates up to 3 MHz. Operating up to 5 MHz, the pin-compatible iP2011 features the same input and output voltage range but is optimised for an output current up to 20 A.
Available in an LGA package with small footprint, both devices are optimised for low power loss, feature highly efficient dual-sided cooling, and are RoHS compliant.
