5G networks with larger antenna arrays (up to 64 Transmit / 64 Receive), facilitating 100−1000X higher data rates, and serving the trillions of devices forming the Internet of Things, would appear to need a great deal
In the context of the upcoming 5G technology era, the development of the new generation of communications networks (5G networks, satellite networks, etc.) addresses important challenges, attempting to provide a wide variety of services and applications with unseen data rates.
To meet the need for improved efficiency, lower operating and lower BOM costs, there is renewed interest in WBG (Wide Bandgap) solutions. The same can be said for the efforts to push Server power supplies to ever increasing levels of efficiency with minimal heat loss.
This document provides the fanless system solution from Infineon designed for 5G edge computing and small cells.
Vertical current flow allows higher voltage devices to be implemented more compactly, since the source and drain terminals are on opposite sides of the wafer, and not both on the top surface. In the GaN HEMT, conduction is confined to the 2DEG channel, while the SiC devices use a short surface channel, but mostly the bulk for carrying current.
