Battery formation is a major electricity consumer in battery manufacturing, characterized by prolonged operation and large scale. The extremely low switching and conduction losses of GaN devices notably enhance power conversion efficiency. Furthermore, the high-frequency and high-efficiency attributes of GaN allow for increased power supply operating frequency, leading to more compact grading power supplies. This reduced size shortens the distance between the power supply and the batteries, greatly diminishing line losses, improving the overall efficiency of the formation and grading system, and lowering operational expenses in battery production.

1kW Buck-Boost Power Solution
The INNDDD1K0B0 integrates a bidirectional buck-boost converter with a load switch. It achieves peak efficiencies of 98.10% in Buck mode and 97.44% in Boost mode, outperforming MOSFET-based solutions by 1.6% while reducing hotspot temperature by 14°C. It is primarily designed for battery formation applications.
