EPC announces new textbook ‘GaN Power Devices and Applications’

Efficient Power Conversion Corp (EPC) of El Segundo, CA, USA – which makes enhancement-mode gallium nitride on silicon (eGaN) power field-effect transistors (FETs) and integrated circuits for power management applications – has announced the publication of a learning resource for professional engineers, systems designers and electrical engineering students seeking the latest information on GaN technology and applications.

Since the 2019 release of the 3rd edition textbook, ‘GaN Transistors for Efficient Power Conversion’ (published by J. Wiley), there has been rapid adoption of GaN transistors and integrated circuits into a wide range of end-use applications such as robots, drones, artificial intelligence (AI) computers, AC adapters, autonomous vehicles (AVs), and even vacuum cleaners. The new book ‘GaN Power Devices and Applications’ (available for immediate delivery from both distributor Digi-Key Corp and Amazon) provides an update on gallium nitride technology and applications by leading experts.

With contributions from nearly 30 industry and academic experts, and edited by EPC’s co-founder & CEO Alex Lidow, the book starts with two years of new information on technology developments, design techniques and reliability, beginning right after the publication of the 3rd edition textbook. In a practical sense, the new book includes detailed discussion and analysis of the latest examples of actual GaN usage in power supplies, light detection & ranging (LiDAR), motor drives, and low-cost satellite applications.

“The information contained in this new textbook will help users fully understand, by examples, the incredible contribution that GaN devices can make to innovative power systems,” comments Lidow. “In addition, QR codes have been inserted at the beginning of each chapter of the book so that readers can link to the very latest information on GaN as new it emerges.”
