Infineon Technologies EVAL_1EDF_G1B_HB_GAN Evaluation Board

Infineon EVAL_1EDF_G1B_HB_GAN Evaluation Board provides a platform to evaluate CoolGaN™ in the universal half-bridge topology. The generic topology can be configured for boost or buck operation, pulse testing, or continuous full-power operation. This makes the Evaluation Board a building block for nearly all converter and inverter applications. The EVAL_1EDF_G1B_HB_GAN Evaluation Board offers an easy, fast setup and test of CoolGAN™. The board has test points allowing easy access to connect signals to an oscilloscope, measuring the switching performance of CoolGaN transistors and gate drivers.

The EVAL_1EDF_G1B_HB_GAN is powered by a single 5V supply input and features a single PWM input intended for connection of a 50Ω pulse generator. The half-bridge circuit board can switch continuous currents of 12A, and peak currents of 35A, hard or soft-switching. Depending on transistor dissipation, the operating frequency can be up to several MHz.
