STMicroelectronics GANSPIN611 GaN High-Power Density Half-Bridge
STMicroelectronics GANSPIN611 GaN High-Power Density Half-Bridge is an advanced power system-in-package integrating two enhancement-mode GaN transistors in a half-bridge configuration driven by a state-of-the-art high-voltage, high-frequency gate driver. The integrated power GaNs have an RDS(ON) of 138mΩ and a 650V drain-source breakdown voltage, while the integrated bootstrap diode can easily supply the high side of the embedded gate driver.
The GANSPIN611, designed for motion control, optimizes the output dV/dt to 10V/ns (typ.) for hard-on/-off. This feature is required in motor control for EMI, motor winding, and ball bearing reliability. Robustness and reliability are also distinctive factors of the GaNSPIN series. Embedding advanced protections, GaNSPIN devices ensure the ideal system robustness. SmartShutdown overcurrent protection provides a fast response due to its embedded logic and dedicated, high-speed comparators.
The STMicroelectronics GANSPIN611 is available in a compact 9mm x 9mm x 1mm QFN package and operates within the industrial temperature range of -40°C to +125°C. The GaNSPIN611 is pin-to-pin with GaNSPIN612 [RDS(ON) of 270mΩ] to maximize scalability in a platform approach.
