氮化鎵功率半導體領導廠商 GaN Systems 今天宣布,將整合由專精氮化鎵功率元件設計的 QPT 公司所開發的驅動、控制與感測技術,用於優化其 GaN 功率電晶體產品的效能,並為操作頻率落於100kHz – 20MHz 間,硬開關的高壓高功率應用,解決系統設計面的挑戰。這項技術證實能大幅發揮 GaN 能效,尤其在車用領域。 QPT 這項解決方案需要高速晶體管來實現 GaN 所保證的卓越能效。兩間公司已經簽屬 MOU 合作備忘錄,期望透過協作解決當前基於 GaN 電晶體的設計挑戰,進一步優化電動車電系統性能表現,為電動車續航里程帶來突破。 「GaN Systems 擁有領先業界的 650V 氮化鎵功率電晶體產品,」QPT 創辦人暨執行長 Rob Gwynne 表示,「結合GaN Systems 優秀的產品與我們創新技術所設計出的高效率功率級,將能幫助電動車更有效率地利用能源,並拉長行駛距離。」 「QPT 擁有令人十分經驗的技術實力,」GaN Systems 全球執行長 Jim Witham 表示,「基於 QPT 技術所實現的功能面的性能優化,為氮化鎵在電動車領域帶來嶄新應用機會。 透過此次合作結合雙方技術及產品優勢,將重寫市場競局。」 由於 QPT 的技術能更有效率的驅動 GaN 電晶體,進而延長電動車續航里程。氮化鎵功率元件的卓越切換速度,使其被視為功率半導體領域的明日之星。切換頻率低的功率元件容易造成能源耗損,主因在開關切換期間,當電晶體既不處於開,也不處於關的狀態時,大量的能源會透過熱的型態逐漸消散,造成功率損耗級過熱的問題。拉高切換頻率,縮短開關切換所需的時間,便能降低能源耗損。GaN 功率電晶體能在 1 – 2 奈秒 (ns) 間完成切換動作,相較矽或碳化矽電晶體所需的 20…
