GaN Systems publishes manual for Class-D amplifier evaluation kit

GaN Systems has published a manual titled, “12V High-Efficiency Audio Reference Designs using GaN Power Transistors.”

The technical manual was developed in response to the launch of GaN Systems Class-D audio amplifier evaluation kit in May 2020 and from growing customer interest for designs in the 12V market for automotive, marine, powersports, and other applications from power system design engineers.

The manual provides several amplifier designs for 12V input systems.

High quality audio is now a “must have” across all segments from Pro-Audio, Home-Audio, and Portable Audio. Class-D audio systems with GaN are not only smaller and lighter but provide better sound quality.

Delivering more power and more channels typically meant driving up size and weight and sacrificing sound quality. With GaN, designers can provide more power, more channels, better sound quality in small, lightweight solutions.
