This reference design demonstrates ultra-compact isolated bias power, which can be used for the half-bridge of TI GaN. The design uses the UCC25800 to generate two isolated 12-V power supplies for the two FETs of the half-bridge, and converts the single 12-V DC into two 12-V DC lines with isolation. The UCC25800 features a 1-MHz switching ability, LLC resonant topology, and an ultra-compact transformer (4.5 mm × 3.2 mm × 3.5 mm). Using these features of the device, 1.2 W of power with relatively high efficiency can be delivered to the reference design.
