NV6511-RA

Overview

The NV6511-RA is a GaNSafe power IC featuring an integrated N-channel GaN FET with a 650V continuous drain-source voltage (VDS) rating. It operates within a supply voltage range of 11V to 18V and delivers a maximum output current of 23A in a TOLL-4L package. The device incorporates zero reverse-recovery charge characteristics and supports paralleling capability for up to two power ICs. Key functional parameters include programmable turn-ON and turn-OFF dV/dt control, 2kV ESD protection on all pins, and integrated fault protection mechanisms.

Feature Summary

• Integrates a 650V N-channel GaN power switch with gate driver and protection logic
• Features programmable turn-on and turn-off dV/dt for electromagnetic interference management
• Supports paralleling of up to two units for increased power capacity
• Provides 2kV electrostatic discharge protection across all pins

Applications

• High-efficiency AC/DC power adapters
• Server and data center power supplies
• Industrial motor drives
• Battery charging systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'RA' against the manufacturer's official datasheet to confirm pinout and electrical specifications match your design requirements. Ensure compatibility with the required operating temperature range and thermal management solutions for the TOLL-4L package. Cross-reference ordering information directly with Navitas Semiconductor or authorized distributors to avoid counterfeit components.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact, high-density power solution is required for voltages up to 650V. The integrated dV/dt control allows for optimized switching performance without external snubbers. Consider the 23A current limit and paralleling options if higher power levels are needed. Verify that the 11V to 18V supply range aligns with your system's gate drive capabilities.
