EPC releases lowest on-resistance rad-hard transistor available for demanding space applications

What happened

EPC has launched the EPC7019, a radiation-hardened GaN FET with a 40V rating, 1.5mΩ on-resistance, and over 1Mrad total dose tolerance for space applications. This is a technology milestone offering improved performance in a small footprint for a highly specialized, low-volume market. Neutral: This is a niche product launch with no immediate, broad impact on commercial component supply, demand, or pricing.
