Design files

Overview

This design is a dual-phase automotive boost converter for Class-H audio applications using LMG2100R026 gallium nitride (GaN) half bridges and offering analog- or digital-output voltage tracking. The output power is 1000W at 11V input voltage (1250W peak at 12V). The converter area measures 47mm × 48mm, not including the reverse polarity protection and bulk input capacitance. This design is based on the LM5125-Q1. The pin-compatible LM51251-Q1 variant offering additional I²C for diagnostics and control can also be used in this design.

Features
  • Very high power density
  • Low switching losses due to GaN switches
  • Digital and analog voltage tracking
  • With I2C control (IC variant dependent)
  • High efficiency and high peak output power
