About

Rad hard GaN overview

Infineon IR HiRel's rad hard GaN transistors are designed to deliver exceptional performance in high reliability space applications. These transistors boast top efficiency, power density, and switching frequencies, making them ideal for creating smaller, lighter, and more reliable power management and distribution systems.

The key features of these GaN FETs include ultra-low RDS(on), low total gate charge, zero reverse recovery charge, and a lightweight design, all of which contribute to reduced power losses and minimized payload mass.

Furthermore, the devices have undergone rigorous testing, including Total Ionizing Dose (TID) and Single Event Effects (SEE) characterization, as well as product validation based on MIL-PRF-19500 for space applications, ensuring utmost reliability for mission-critical operations.

Quality conformance testing

HiRel products, used in military and space applications, undergo rigorous quality conformance testing to ensure performance in harsh environments. The US Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) sets standards, including MIL-PRF-19500/MIL-STD-750 for discrete semiconductors and MIL-PRF-38534/MIL-STD-883 for power hybrids.

These standards dictate manufacturing levels, such as JAN, JANTX, JANTXV, or JANS for discrete semiconductors, and class H or class K for hybrids. International Rectifier HiRel Â鶹¹ÙÍø Group manufactures and tests products to three quality conformance levels: commercial hermetic, source control drawing (SCD), or MIL-PRF-38534/MIL-PRF-38535 qualified.

Glossary

Class H: Class H is the standard military quality level provided in MIL-PRF-38534, General Specification for Hybrid Microcircuits. It is intended for space applications.

Level B: Class level B defines the screening requirements for high reliability military applications as specified in MIL-STD-883 and is intended for use in class H products.

Level S: Class level S defines the screening requirements for high reliability space applications as specified in MIL-STD-883 and is intended for use in class K products.

JAN: JAN (Joint Army Navy) is the prefix assigned by the DLA to designate devices on the DLA qualified parts list.

JANTX: Military screening level as specified in MIL-PRF-19500 for a DLA qualified device.

JANTXV: Military with visual inspection screening level as specified in MIL-PRF-19500 for a DLA qualified device.

JANS: Space level screening as specified in MIL-PRF-19500 for a DLA qualified device.

Applications

With Total Ionizing Dose (TID) and Single Event Effects (SEE) characterization, plus product validation based on MIL-PRF-19500 for space applications, our GaN device offers utmost reliability for mission-critical operations.

Available applications:

  • Isolated DC-DC converters
  • Point-of-load (PoL) converters for FPGA, ASIC, and DSP core rails
  • Synchronous rectification
  • Motor drivers
