에너지 효율과 성능의 새로운 기준, PAC5556A + ICeGaN 평가

(전국= KTN) 김도형 기자= 에너지 효율적인 친환경 전자제품을 위한 전력 디바이스 기술이 새로운 차원으로 진화하고 있다. 청정 반도체 기술 기업인 CGD(Cambridge GaN Devices)와 글로벌 전력 솔루션 선도 기업 코보(Qorvo, NASDAQ: QRVO)가 차세대 모터 제어 솔루션을 공동 개발하면서 업계에 파장을 일으키고 있다. 이번 협력은 코보의 고성능 BLDC/PMSM 모터 컨트롤러와 CGD의 간편한 ICeGaN® 기술을 결합한 PAC5556A + ICeGaN 평가 키트(EVK) 개발을 목표로 한다.

이번 평가 키트는 코보의 PAC5556A 모터 제어 IC와 CGD의 고효율 ICeGaN 기술이 단일 보드에 통합된 혁신적 솔루션으로, 높은 전력 밀도와 소형화를 실현하며 가전제품, 냉장고, 펌프 등 고효율이 요구되는 애플리케이션에 최적화된 설계를 지원한다. 특히 저속에서 높은 토크와 정밀한 제어가 요구되는 홈 자동화 및 산업용 모터 제어 시스템에서 뛰어난 성능을 발휘할 것으로 기대된다.

CGD의 최고마케팅책임자 안드레아 브리코니(Andrea Bricconi)는 “코보와의 협력으로 보다 강력한 모터 제어 시스템을 구현할 수 있게 되었으며, 이로써 소형화와 에너지 효율성을 동시에 확보한 고성능 솔루션을 고객에게 제공할 수 있게 됐다”고 강조했다.

코보 전력관리 사업부의 제프 스트랭(Jeff Strang) 총괄 책임자 역시 “CGD의 ICeGaN 기술과 코보의 PAC5556A 솔루션의 결합으로 설계자들은 손쉽게 높은 성능의 솔루션을 구축할 수 있게 될 것”이라며, “전력 밀도와 효율성이 극대화된 이 솔루션은 BLDC 및 PMSM 애플리케이션에 일관된 고성능을 제공할 수 있다”고 전했다.

성능과 효율을 극대화한 GaN 기반 모터 제어 키트

이번 평가 키트는 두 가지 버전으로 출시되며, PAC5556AEVK2는 최대 400W, PAC5556AEVK3는 800W의 피크 성능을 발휘한다. 특히 효율성을 한층 높인 ICeGaN은 열을 최소화하여 방열판 없이도 높은 성능을 유지하며, BOM 비용 절감과 솔루션 구현의 용이성까지 갖추고 있어 시장 경쟁력을 더욱 강화한다.

PAC5556A + CGD GaN 평가 키트는 현재 코보 웹사이트에서 주문 가능하며, CGD는 Electronica 전시회에서 해당 제품을 공개하며 업계의 주목을 받았다.

New Standards for Energy Efficiency and Performance, PAC5556A + ICEGaN Evaluation

(National = KTN) Reporter Kim Do-hyung = Power device technology for energy-efficient eco-friendly electronics is evolving to a new level. CGD (Cambridge GaN Devices), a clean semiconductor technology company, and Qorvo (NASDAQ: QRVO), a global power solution leader, are making waves in the industry by jointly developing a next-generation motor control solution. This cooperation aims to develop a PAC5556A + ICEGaN evaluation kit (EVK) that combines Kobo's high-performance BLDC/PMSM motor controller with CGD's easy ICeGaN® technology.

This evaluation kit is an innovative solution in which Kobo's PAC5556A motor control IC and CGD's high-efficiency ICeGaN technology are integrated into a single board, realizing high power density and miniaturization, and supporting designs optimized for applications that require high efficiency such as home appliances, refrigerators, and pumps. In particular, it is expected to perform well in home automation and industrial motor control systems that require high torque and precise control at low speeds.

"Our collaboration with Kobo has enabled us to implement a more powerful motor control system, allowing us to provide customers with high-performance solutions that have both miniaturization and energy efficiency," said Andrea Brickconi, chief marketing officer at CGD.

Jeff Strang, general manager of Kobo's power management division, also said, "The combination of CGD's ICeGaN technology and Kobo's PAC5556A solution will make it easy for designers to build high-performance solutions," adding, "This solution, which maximizes power density and efficiency, can provide consistent high performance for BLDC and PMSM applications."

GaN-based motor control kit for maximum performance and efficiency

The evaluation kit will be released in two versions, with peak performance of up to 400W for the PAC5556AEVK2 and 800W for the PAC5556AEVK3. In particular, ICeGaN, which has increased efficiency, maintains high performance without a heat sink by minimizing heat, and further strengthens its market competitiveness by reducing BOM costs and ease of solution implementation.

The PAC5556A + CGD GaN evaluation kit is currently available for order on the COBO website, and CGD has gained industry attention by unveiling the product at the Electronica exhibition.
