Teledyne e2v HiRel Electronics announced the release of the TDGM650LS60, the first product in its innovative new 650V power module family. This new module utilizes a Teledyne high voltage Gallium Nitride (GaN) transistor and integrates an isolated driver in one package.
Designed to serve as a load switch or solid-state switch, the TDGM650LS60 offers unparalleled performance and versatility. With the driver providing 5KV isolation and a GaN transistor boasting a minimum breakdown voltage of 650V, this module ensures robust and dependable operation in diverse environments.
One of the standout features of the TDGM650LS60 is its lightning-fast switching time coupled with the absence of moving parts. This unique combination not only enhances operational efficiency but also significantly elevates the reliability of the device. As a result, the TDGM650LS60 is ideally suited for high-reliability applications, including but not limited to Space, Avionics, and Military sectors.
“This launch marks a significant milestone in Teledyne’s commitment to innovation” said Mont Taylor, Vice President and Business Development Manager at Teledyne e2v HiRel. “The TDGM650LS60 represents the culmination of our dedication to pushing the boundaries of technology, offering our customers performance, reliability, and versatility in their applications.”

Teledyne e2v HiRel announced the availability of radiation tolerant RF and Power products for the evolving New Space market. Qualified based on the EEE-INST-002 space grade standard, these plastic packaged products are qualified for the harsh environment of space with –55°C to +125°C temperature operating ratings, and are radiation tolerant for use in LEO, MEO, and GEO missions.
The RF products include several low noise amplifiers (LNA) and are ideal for demanding high-reliability space applications where low noise figure, minimal power consumption, and small footprint are critical to mission success. They are ideally suited for satellite communication systems that are increasing the power of radio signals so utilizing components with minimal noise and distortion help minimizing the degradation of digital signals.
These LNAs are developed in the radiation tolerant pHEMT technology semiconductor process technology. The monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) products are available in dual-flat no lead (DFN) plastic over molded SMT packages and are biased over single positive VDD supply voltages, eliminating the need for negative power rail voltages.
- The TDLNA002093SEP delivers a low noise figure of less than 0.37 dB, IDDQ from 30 mA to 100mA, and exceptional performance from 1 GHz (L-band) to 6 GHz (S-band) frequencies.
- The TDLNA0430SEP delivers an industry leading low noise figure of less than 0.35 dB, IDDQ of 60mA and exceptional performance from 0.3 GHz (UHF) to 3 GHz (S-band) frequencies.
- The TDLNA2050SEP delivers an industry leading low noise figure of less than 0.4 dB, IDDQ of 60mA and exceptional performance from 2.0 GHz (S-band) to 5 GHz (C-band) frequencies.
The Power products offerings include Gallium Nitride (GaN) technology High Electron Mobility Transistors up to 650V, currents up to 90 Amp, high switching frequencies, and low RDSON. These GaN solutions have easy gate-drive requirements and enable high power density designs with four times less space requirements than traditional MOSFETs. The TDG650E60xSP parts are available in extremely small non hermetic packages with either top-side and bottom-side thermal pads and are ideally suited for satellite power supply systems with space production screening.
“Today we’re announcing our New Space products offering of RF and Power products optimized for space applications,” said Mont Taylor, Vice President and Business Development Manager at Teledyne e2v HiRel. “These LNAs with their ultra low noise figures coupled with the high power density capabilities of GaN transistors, we believe these products will enable system designers with superior solutions for space based satellite communication applications.”Original – Teledyne e2v HiRel

Teledyne e2v HiRel announced the addition of new space screened versions of its popular 100 V, 90 A and 650 V, 30 A high reliability gallium nitride high electron mobility transistors (GaN HEMTs).
- TDG650E30BSP
- TDG100E90BSP
- TDG100E90TSP
The new parts go through NASA Level 1 or ESA Class 1 screening flow and can be brought up to full Level 1 conformance with extra qualification testing if desired. Typical applications include battery management, dc-dc converters, and space motor drives.
Two new 100 V parts are available with both bottom-side and top-side cooled packaging. One new 650 V 30 A GaN-on-Silicon power transistor is available in a bottom-side cooled package. Each device is available with options for EAR99 or European sourcing.
Teledyne e2v HiRel’s GaN HEMTs feature single wafer lot traceability, extended temperature performance from -55 to +125°C, and low inductance, low thermal resistance packaging.
“Our customers have embraced the previous release of 650 V space screened devices, and we have expanded our portfolio to provide additional options. These GaN HEMT products save customers time and money by providing standard devices without the need for additional screening.” said Mont Taylor, VP of Business Development for Teledyne e2v HiRel. “Our expanded catalog with standard burn-in make it easy for designers to utilize the latest in GaN in their designs.”
Gallium nitride devices have revolutionized power conversion in other industries and are now available in radiation tolerant, plastic encapsulated options that have undergone stringent reliability and electrical testing to help ensure mission critical success. The release of these new GaN HEMTs delivers to customers the efficiency, size, and power-density benefits required in critical aerospace and defense power applications.
