EPC announces the introduction of two new 100 V power stage ICs rated at 15 A (EPC23104) and 25 A (EPC23103). The two devices join the 100 V 35 A power stage IC EPC23102 offered by EPC.

The three ICs are capable of a maximum withstand voltage of 100 V and integrate a complete GaN half-bridge power stage that includes symmetrical FETs in half bridge configuration, half bridge driver, level shifter, bootstrap charging, and input logic interface.

The three devices feature a thermally enhanced QFN package measuring only 3.5 mm x 5 mm with exposed top for dual side cooling and wettable flanks. Footprint compatibility enables customers to upgrade their design for better performance or lower cost without modification to the board, and therefore can easily adapt to changing load requirements.

In DC-DC applications, the devices can operate with high efficiency at high switching frequency (3 MHz maximum) and offer higher performance and smaller solution size for 28 V – 60 V DC-DC in computing, industrial and USB PD 3.1 applications (more info).
