Key Points
• GaN technology requires precise gate
drive voltage control to ensure optimal
performance and avoid device damage.
• Managing high switching speeds in GaN
devices necessitates minimizing parasitic
inductance and capacitance to prevent
performance and reliability issues.
• High switching frequencies in GaN
technology demand careful selection of
passive components to handle higher current
densities and thermal loads.
• Analog Devices and Bourns accelerate
the adoption of GaN technology in power
electronics by offering extensive design
collaterals and expertise to simplify the
system design process.
