What happened
Renesas Electronics unveiled the TP65H020G4PLSGBD, a 650 V, 20 mΩ GaN FET built on its Gen IV Plus GaN process and housed in an 8 × 8 mm dual-side-cooled PQFN package. S1 The company states the new footprint is roughly 57% smaller than its 10 × 15 mm TOLT package and that top-side thermal impedance falls by about 10%. S1 Renesas cites a 6 kW, 800 V-to-48 V LLC DC-transformer reference design with the device and an RA6T3 MCU, reporting 2.6 kW per cubic inch. S1
Vishay Intertechnology added four 650 V Superjunction MOSFET power modules in the SOT-227 footprint: VS-FC50SA65 (50 A single switch), VS-FC100SA65 (100 A), VS-FC150SA65 (150 A) and VS-FC50LA65 (50 A low-side chopper with an integrated 650 V SiC diode). S1 Diodes Incorporated released an automotive-qualified field-plated Super Barrier Rectifier (SBRFP) family, with the SBRFP2M60P1Q, SBRFP2M60SAFQ, SBRFP3M60SAFQ and SBRFP8A60P5Q, offering 2 A, 2 A, 3 A and 8 A ratings; maximum forward voltage of 0.55 V at 8 A is listed for the 8 A part, maximum leakage of 12 µA for the SBRFP2M60P1Q and 7 µA for the SBRFP3M60SAFQ, with avalanche-energy ratings reaching 145 mJ. S1
Infineon Technologies and Eaton disclosed a collaboration on SiC-based solid-state transformers for 800 VDC AI data-center power distribution, targeting Eaton's MVSST 2.0 platform and exploring future 2.3 kV and 3.3 kV SiC modules. S1 Navitas Semiconductor reported it has been selected for the U.S. Army Research Laboratory's ALATTIS program to develop 10 kV SiC IGBT and PiN-diode manufacturing technology, building on a portfolio the source describes as spanning 650 V to 6.5 kV. S1
ITEN announced production of its one-millionth solid-state battery and a new 1,500 µAh member of the Powency surface-mount family, positioned at roughly six times the energy of its prior 250 µAh part, with sampling now open and volume production targeted for the end of 2026; the source states the company's installed capacity at more than 30 million devices per year.

XAIPART take
Technical impact
XAIPART analysis The Renesas TP65H020G4PLSGBD matters for AI-server PSU and intermediate-bus designers because 650 V GaN with a depletion-mode HEMT plus low-voltage Si MOSFET cascode keeps existing silicon gate-drive ecosystems, while the 8 × 8 mm dual-side-cooled PQFN opens double-sided cold-plate paths that 10 × 15 mm TOLT layouts cannot access.
XAIPART analysis The VS-FC50/100/150SA65 family gives a drop-in SOT-227 refresh for industrial motor drives and UPS boards, and the VS-FC50LA65 chopper's integrated 650 V SiC diode is the more interesting part for designers planning soft-switching bridges without a discrete diode search.
Market impact
XAIPART analysis Three of these launches (Renesas GaN, Infineon-Eaton SiC SST, Navitas 10 kV SiC IGBT) converge on the same buyer problem: 800 VDC and beyond into AI racks, where BOMs are still constrained by 650 V/1200 V device availability, so 650 V GaN and 2.3 kV / 3.3 kV SiC roadmaps are now setting qualification queues.
XAIPART analysis For procurement, Diodes' SBRFP family offers a second-source path against incumbent Schottky lines in automotive DC-DC and reverse-polarity protection, while ITEN's 1,500 µAh cell widens the surface-mount energy-storage shortlist for IoT and energy-harvesting designs that previously needed a coin cell or small Li-ion pack.
Action
XAIPART analysis Buyers should request EVT samples of the TP65H020G4PLSGBD for any 800 V-to-48 V or 800 V-to-12 V AI-server reference design running in Q4 2026, confirm Renesas RDSon and gate-drive compatibility against existing 650 V GaN sockets, and check dual-side-cooled PCB stack-up with their thermal team.
XAIPART analysis Engineers should shortlist the Vishay VS-FC50LA65 for SOT-227 retrofits needing an integrated 650 V SiC diode, evaluate the Diodes SBRFP8A60P5Q's 0.55 V forward drop and 145 mJ avalanche rating as a Schottky alternative, and open early sampling on the ITEN 1,500 µAh Powency cell with a fallback plan against the end-of-2026 volume-production date.
XAIPART Forecast
XAIPART analysis XAIPART expects that by Q2 2027 at least one of the Renesas TP65H020G4PLSGBD, Vishay VS-FC150SA65 or Diodes SBRFP8A60P5Q will be listed with a published distributor lead time below 12 weeks; if none of those three MPNs shows a sub-12-week lead time at any major distributor by 2027-06-30, this forecast is wrong.
Facts are as reported by the cited source. The design-in, sourcing and forward-looking statements above are XAIPART's analysis, not the source's claims. Pricing, distributor stock, qualification status beyond what the source states, and the actual 2.3 kV / 3.3 kV SiC device part numbers from Infineon-Eaton were not disclosed by the source.
Corrections: none at publication. This brief will be updated with a timestamp if the source corrects its report.
