EPC board targets AirFuel Wireless Power Standard
Efficient Power Conversion (EPC) has announced the EPC9065, a 100W, 92 percent efficient eGan FET development board that can serve as the amplifier stage for 6.78MHz AirFuel Alliance Class 4 and Class 5 wireless power transfer applications.
This board is a Zero Voltage Switching (ZVS) differential-mode class-D amplifier development board configured at, but is not limited to, 6.78MHz (Lowest ISM band).
The EPC9065 includes all the critical components, including two screw-mounted heat sinks for increased power capability. It can be easily connected into an existing system to speed end-product time to market.
This development board features the EPC2007C and the EPC8010, which are 100V rated enhancement-mode GaN FETs.
The EPC2007C is used in the class-D amplifier while the EPC8010 is used as a synchronous bootstrap FET. The amplifier can be set to operate in either differential or single-ended mode and includes the gate drivers, a 6.78MHz oscillator, and a separate heat sink for each Class-D section.
