Information on the use of EPC eGaN FETs in micro inverter applications for solar panels?

Using eGaN FETs and ICs in these designs reduces switching losses resulting in higher efficiency and/or higher switching frequency. Inverter size and cost are dominated by thermal management and the passive elements used for bulk energy storage and filtering. Using eGaN FETs and ICs to increase efficiency and/or increase switching frequency can reduce the overall size and cost of the power inverter. For more information visit the Power Inverter Applications page.
