EPC launches DC-DC Handbook
EPC published a guide for power engineers showing how to achieve increases in efficiency and power density in datacom equipment and other power conversion applications using GaN power transistors.
The book, 'DC-DC Handbook: A Supplement to GaN Transistors for Efficient Power Conversion', is the latest publication in EPC's textbook series. With a focus on the use of high performance GaN technology, this DC-DC handbook goes through step-by-step analysis of how to create power conversion solutions using GaN devices.
The analysis makes direct performance comparisons with state-of-the-art silicon power transistors (MOSFETs) traditionally used in power conversion systems.
Combining the discussion of power conversion systems architectures and the superior performance of GaN technology, the book introduces a new power delivery architecture that takes advantage of the performance attributes of GaN - showing the increased power density that can be achieved with high frequency switching.
