MASTERGAN1TR

Full Half-Bridge (H Bridge) Drivers Overview

The EVALMASTERGAN1 is a demonstration board for the MASTERGAN1 high power density half-bridge driver. It utilizes a system-level package integrating two 650 V enhancement mode GaN HEMTs with an optimized offline gate driver. The board supports input voltages from 4.5 V to 6 V and provides a 3.3 V output with a drive current of 50 mA. Designed for high-frequency switching, it enables compact power supplies significantly smaller than MOSFET-based alternatives.
