This evaluation kit is designed for engineering evaluation in a controlled
lab environment and should be handled by qualified personnel ONLY.
High voltage will be exposed on the board during the test and even brief
contact during operation may result in severe injury or death.
Never leave the board operating unattended. After it is de-energized,
always wait until all capacitors are discharged before touching the board.
This product contains parts that are susceptible to damage by electrostatic
discharge (ESD). Always follow ESD prevention procedures when
handling the product.
The GS665XXX-EVBDB daughter board style evaluation kit consists of two GaN Systems 650V GaN
Enhancement-mode HEMTs (E-HEMTs) and all necessary circuits including half bridge gate drivers,
isolated power supplies and optional heatsink to form a functional half bridge power stage. It allows
users to easily evaluate the GaN E-HEMT performance in any half bridge-based topology, either with the
universal mother board (P/N: GS665MB-EVB) or users’ own system design.
Serves as a reference design and evaluation tool as well as deployment-ready solution for easy in-
system evaluation.
Vertical mount style with height of 35mm, which fits in majority of 1U design and allows
evaluation of GaN E-HEMT in traditional through-hole type power supply board.

The daughter board GS665XXX-EVBDB circuit diagram is shown in Figure 1. The control logic inputs on
2x3 pin header J1 are listed below:
Pin
Descriptipon
ENA
Enable input. It is internally pulled up to VCC, a low logic disables all the PWM gate
drive outputs.
VCC
+5V auxillary power supply input for logic circuit and gate driver. On the daughter
board there are 2 isolated 5V to 9V DC/DC power supplies for top and bottom switches.
VDRV
Optional 9V gate drive power input. This pin allows users to supply separate gate drive
power supply. By default VDRV is connected to VCC on the daughter board via a 0 ohm
jumper FB1. If bootstrap mode is used for high side gate drive, connect VDRV to 9V
PWMH
High side PWM logic input for top switch Q1. It is compatible wth 3.3V and 5V
PWML
Low side PWM logic input for bottom switch Q2. It is compatible wth 3.3V and 5V
0V
Logic inputs and gate drive power supply ground return.
The 3 power pins are:
VDC+: Input DC Bus voltage
VSW: Switching node output
VDC-: Input DC bus voltage ground return. Note that control ground 0V is isolated from VDC-.

H. 5V-9V isolated DC/DC gate drive power supply
This daughter board includes two GaN Systems E-HEMT GS66508B (650V/30A, 50mΩ) in a
GaNPx™ B type package. The large S pad serves as source connection and thermal pad. The pin
4 is the kelvin source connection for gate drive return.
Silab Si8271GB-IS isolated gate driver is chosen for this design. This driver is compatible with 6V
gate drive with 4V UVLO and has CMTI dv/dt rating up to 200V/ns. It has separated source and
sink drive outputs which eliminates the need for additional diode.
GaN E-HEMT switching speed and slew rate can be directly controlled by the gate resistor. By
default the turn-on Rgate (R6/R12) is 10Ω and Rg_off (R7/R14) is 1Ω. User can adjust the values
of gate resistors to fine tune the turn-on and off speed.
FB1/FB2 are footprints for optional ferrite bead. By default they are populated with 0Ω jumpers.
If gate oscillation is observed, it is recommended to replace them with ferrite bead with Z=10-
20Ω@100MHz.
5V-9V isolated DC/DC converters are used for gate drive. 9V output is then regulated down to
6V for gate driver.
By default gate drive supply input VDRV is tied to VCC +5V via 0Ω jumper (FB1). Remove FB1 if
separate gate drive input voltage is to be used.
The board has option for users to experiment with non-isolated bootstrap circuit with following
circuit changes:
o Remove PS2 and short circuit pin 2 to 5 and pin 1 to 4.
o Populate D1/ R1 (not supplied): D1 is the high voltage bootstrap diode (for example ES1J)
and use 1-2Ω 0805 SMD resistor on R1. Depopulate PS1, LED1 and replace C2 with 1uF
capacitor.
o Remove 0Ω jumper at FB1 and supply +9V at VDRV.

The board provides an optional current shunt position JP1 between the source of Q2 and power
ground return. This allows drain current measurement for switching characterization test such as
Eon/Eoff measurement.
The JP1 footprint is compatible with T&M Research SDN series coaxial current shunt
(recommended P/N: SDN-414-10, 2GHz B/W, 0.1Ω)
If current shunt is not used JP1 must be shorted. JP1 affects the power loop inductance and its
inductance should be kept as low as possible. Use a copper foil or jumper with low inductance.

1. When measuring VSW with current shunt, ensure all channel probe grounds and current shunt
BNC output case are all referenced to the source end of Q2 before the current shunt. The
recommended setup of probes is shown as below.
2. The output of coaxial current shunt can be connected to oscilloscope via 50Ω termination
impedance to reduce the ringing.
3. The measured current is inverted and can be scaled by using: Id=Vid/Rsense.
1. GS66508B has a thermal pad at the bottom side for heat dissipation. The heat is transferred to the
bottom side of PCB using thermal vias and copper plane.
2. A heatsink (35x35mm size) can be attached to the bottom side of board for optimum cooling.

the PCB surface. The daughter board evaluation kit supplies with a sample 35x35mm fin heatsink
(not installed), although other heatsinks can also be used to fit users’ system design.
3. A thermal tape type TIM (Berguist® Bond-Ply 100) is chosen for its easy assembly. The supplied
heatsink has the thermal tape pre-applied so simply peel off the protective film and attach the
heatsink to the back of board as marked in Figure 3.
4. Two optional mounting holes as shown in Figure 9 are provided for mounting customized
heatsink using screws.
5. Using the supplied heatsink and TIM, the overall junction to ambient thermal resistance RthJ-A is
~9°C/W with 500LFM airflow.
6. Forced air cooling is recommended for power testing.

The top and bottom switches PWM inputs can be individually controlled by two jumpers J4 and J6. Users
can choose between a pair of complementary on-board internal PWM signals (non-inverted and inverted,
controlled by J7 input) with dead time or external high/low side drive signals from J5 (users’ own control
board).
An on-board dead time generation circuit is included on the mother board. Dead time is controlled by
two RC delay circuits, R6/C12 and R5/C11. The default dead time is set to about 100ns. Additionally two
potentiometers locations are provided (TR1/TR2, not included) to allow fine adjustment of the dead time
if needed.

An external power inductor (not included) can be connected between VSW (CON1) and VOUT (CON4/5)
or VDC+ (CON2/3) for double pulse test. Users can choose their inductor size to meet the test
requirement. Generally it is recommended to use power inductor with low inter-winding capacitance to
obtain best switching performance. For the double pulse testing we use 2x 60uH/40Amp inductor (CWS,
P/N: HF467-600M-40AV) in series. C14 is designed to accommodate a film capacitor as output filter.

Double pulse test allows easy evaluation of device switching performance at high voltage/current
without the need of actually running at high power. It can also be used for switching loss (Eon/Eoff)
measurement and other switching characterization parameter test.
The circuit configuration and operating principle can be found in Figure 13:
1. The output inductor is connected to the VDC+.
2. At t0 when Q2 is switched on, the inductor current starts to ramp up until t1. The period of first
pulse Ton1 defines the switching current ISW = (VDS*TON1) / L.
3. t1-t2 is the free wheeling period when the inductor current IL forces Q1 to conduct in reverse.
4. t1 (turn-off) and t2 (turn-on) are of interest for this test as they are the hard switching trasients for
the half bridge circuit when Q2 is under high switching stress.
5. The second pulse t2-t3 is kept short to limit the peak inductor current at t3.
The double pulse signal can be generated using programmable signal generaotor or microcontroller/DSP
board. As this test involves high switching stress and high current, it is recommended to set the double
pulse test gate signal as single trigger mode or use long repetition period (for example >50-100ms) to void
excess stress to the switches. Q1 can be kept off during the test or driven synchronously (J4 set to OFF or
INT_INV) and Q2 is set to INT (or EXT position if PWM signal is from J5).

Follow the instructions below to quickly get started with your evaluation of GaN E-HEMT. Equipment
and components you will need:
Four-channel oscilloscope with 500MHz bandwidth or higher
high bandwidth (500MHz or higher) passive probe
high bandwidth (500MHz) high voltage probe (>600V)
AC/DC current probe for inductor current measurement
12V DC power supply
Signal generator capable of creating testing pulses
High voltage power supply (0-400VDC) with current limit.
External power inductor (recommend toroid inductor 50-200uH)
1. Check the JP1 on daughter board GS665XXX-EVBDB. Use a copper foil and solder to short JP1.
2. Install GS665XXX-EVBDB on the mother board. Press all the way down until you feel a click. Connect
probe between VGL and VSL for gate voltage measurement.
3. Set up the mother board:
a. Connect 12VDC bias supply to J1.
b. Connect PWM input gate signal (0-5V) to J7. If it is generated from a signal generator ensure
the output mode is high-Z mode.
c. Set J4 to OFF position and J7 to INT.
d. Set High voltage (HV) DC supply voltage to 0V and ensure the output is OFF. Connect HV
supply to CON2 and CON6.
e. Use HV probe between TP6 and TP5 for Vds measurement.
f. Connect external inductor between CON1 and CON3. Use current probe to measure inductor
current IL.
4. Set up and check PWM gate signal:
a. Turn-on 12VDC power.
b. Check the 2 LEDs on the daughter board. They should be turned on indicating the isolated
9V is present.
c. Set up signal generator to create the waveforms as shown in Figure 13. Use equation ISW =
(VDS*TON1) / L to calculate the pulse width of the first pulse and ensure the Isw_max is ≤30A at
400VDC.
d. Set the operation mode to either single trigger or Burst mode with repetition period of 100ms.
e. Turn on the PWM output and check on the oscilloscope to make sure the VGL waveform is
present and matches the PWM input.
5. Power-on:
a. Turn on the output of the HV supply. Start with low voltage and slowly ramp the voltage up
until it reaches 400VDC. During the ramping period closely observe the the voltage and
current waveforms on the oscilloscope.
6. Power-off:
a. After the test is complete, slowly ramp down the HV supply voltage to 0V and turn off the
output. Then turn off the 12V bias supply and signal generator output.
Figure 16 shows the hard switching on waveforms at 400V/30A. A Vds dip can be seen due to the rising
drain current (di/dt in the power loop ΔV=Lpxdi/dt, where Lp is the total power loop inductance). After
the drain current reaches the inductor current, the Vds starts to fall. The Vgs undershoot spike is caused
by the miller feedback via Cgd under negative dv/dt.
Due to the low gate charge and small RG(OFF) , GaN E-HEMT gate has limited control on the turn-off
dv/dt. Instead the Vds rise time is determined by how fast the turn-off current charges switching node
capacitance (Coss).
The low Coss of GaN E-HEMT and low parasitic inductance of GaNPX™ package together with
optimized PCB alyout, enables a fast and clean turn-off Vds waveform with only 50V the turn-off Vds
overshoot at dv/dt > 100V/ns. The measured rise time is 3.9ns at 400V and 30A hard turn-off。
A T&M search coaxial current shunt (SDN-414-10, 0.1Ω) is installed for switching loss measurement as
shown below.
The switching energy can be calculated from the measured switching waveform Psw = Vds*Id. The
integral of the Psw during switching period is the measured switching loss. The channel deskewing is
critical for measurement accurary. It is recommended to manually deskew Id against Vds as shown in
Figure 20. The drain current spike is caused by charging the high side switch Coss (Qoss loss).
The switching loss measurements with drain current from 0 to 30A can be found in Figure 22. The turn-
on loss dominates the overall hard switching loss. Eon at 0A is the Qoss loss caused by the Coss at high
side switch.
The turn-off loss remain almost constant from 0A up to 20A about 8uJ. the measured Eoff matches well
with the Eoss @400V, which indicates that turn-off energy is dominated by Eoss, the energy required to
charge Coss from 0V to bus voltage. This energy is not part of loss at turn-off, but actually part of turn-on
loss at next hard switching turn-on period. This means that with the fast turn-off speed the GaN E-HEMT
can achieve near zero turn-off switching loss.

The board is converted to a synchronous buck DC/DC converter and demonstrates efficiency 99% at
1.5kW. With forced air cooling, the peak device temperature TJ_MAX was measured at 80°C at 1kW output.
