STMicroelectronics EVLMG4LPWRBR1 GaN-Based Half-Bridge Power Module

STMicroelectronics EVLMG4LPWRBR1 GaN-Based Half-Bridge Power Module is equipped with MASTERGAN4L, which quickly creates topologies without needing a complete PCB design. Fine-tuned to work in an LLC application, the 30mm x 40mm wide FR-4 PCB module provides low-side resistors set to zero and two external body diodes connected parallel to each half-bridge GaN. The module can also work in active clamp or resonant peak current mode flyback applications simply by properly adjusting the low-side sense resistor and removing the parallel diodes.

Two alternative 6V linear regulators are embedded in the PCB: a simple, low-cost regulator and a more precise temperature-independent one. Due to the external bootstrap diode and capacitor, a proper supply for VCC, PVCC, and Vbo is provided. The module accepts only separate driving signals, and the delay time can be modulated by adjusting a dedicated RC filter.
