3 Description

The LMG342xR030 GaN FET with integrated driver

and protection is targeted at switch-mode power

converters and enables designers to achieve new

levels of power density and efficiency.

The LMG342xR030 integrates a silicon driver that

enables switching speed up to 150V/ns. TI’s

integrated precision gate bias results in higher

switching SOA compared to discrete silicon gate

drivers. This integration, combined with TI's lowinductance

package, delivers clean switching and

minimal ringing in hard-switching power supply

topologies. Adjustable gate drive strength allows

control of the slew rate from 20V/ns to 150V/ns,

which can be used to actively control EMI and

optimize switching performance. The LMG3426R030

includes the zero-voltage detection (ZVD) feature

which provides a pulse output from the ZVD pin when

zero-voltage switching is realized.

Advanced power management features include

digital temperature reporting and fault detection.

The temperature of the GaN FET is reported

through a variable duty cycle PWM output, which

simplifies managing device loading. Faults reported

include overcurrent, short-circuit, overtemperature,

VDD UVLO, and high-impedance RDRV pin.
