The EV6982-J-00A is an evaluation board designed to demonstrate the capabilities of the MP6982, a fast turn-off, intelligent rectifier for GaN HEMT applications.

The MP6982 can replace a Schottky diode for higher efficiency. The device regulates the external synchronous rectification (SR) GaN HEMT’s forward voltage drop (V_FORWARD) to about 40mV and turns off before the drain-to-source voltage (V_DS) reverses.

The MP6982 can generate its own supply voltage without the need for auxiliary winding, which makes it suitable for charger applications with a low output voltage (V_OUT), or for high-side (HS) SR configurations. The configurable ringing detection circuitry prevents the MP6982 from falsely turning on during discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) and quasi-resonant (QR) operations.

The MP6982 is available in a TSOT23-6 package.
