Introduction
The GS65011-EVBEZ Evaluation Board (EVB) is an open loop Boost converter and was
designed to help customers evaluate GaN Systems’ EZDrive
TM
solution with a GaN
Systems’ E-HEMT.
The EZDrive
TM
circuit is a low-cost, easy way to implement a GaN driving circuit using a
standard MOSFET controller with integrated driver. The EZDrive
TM
circuit provides
design control for the optimization of efficiency and EMI. It is adaptable to any power
level, any frequency, and any LLC and PFC controller.
The board is populated with GaN Systems’ GS-065-011-1-L, a 5×6 mm PDFN package
Enhancement-Mode High Electron Mobility Transistor (E-HEMT).
