Boost appliance energy ratings with next-gen GaN drivers for motion control
GANSPIN series: High-voltage half-bridge GaN motor drivers
GaNSPIN611 and GaNSPIN612, high-voltage GaN half-bridge motor drivers are built for compact, efficient, and reliable motion control. They help you design for home appliances, compressors, pumps, fans, power tools, servo drives, and factory automation with a scalable platform that keeps performance and robustness in focus.When you need more from motor control, GaN can help you go further in less space. GaNSPIN611 and GaNSPIN612 combine integrated GaN transistors, a dedicated gate driver, and advanced protection features in a compact QFN package. With pin-to-pin compatibility and scalable performance, they give you a flexible way to optimize efficiency, switching behavior, and system robustness.
GANSPIN611
For higher-current motor control designs, GaNSPIN611 offers 138 mΩ RDS(on) and 10 A IDS(MAX). It features a 650 V half-bridge GaN architecture, Smart shutdown, UVLO, and dV/dt control, while staying pin-to-pin compatible for easy scalability.
GANSPIN612
For lower-current designs, GaNSPIN612 offers 270 mΩ RDS(on) and 5.5 A IDS(MAX). It shares the same 650 V half-bridge GaN architecture, advanced protections, and 10 V/ns typical dV/dt control, with pin-to-pin compatibility.

400 W Motor control inverter reference design, a faster way to prototype three-phase motor drives
The EVLGANSPIN1-3PH gives you a fast, practical way to prototype and validate high-efficiency three-phase motor drives with GaN technology.
It’s a complete inverter including power supply and EMI filter, and it operates with passive cooling only, without a heatsink. Compatible with STLINK V3, it is possible to use AC or DC input. It embeds the STM32G431 MCU, the VIPer06 flyback controller and the TSV911 op amp.
GaNSPIN GaN motor drivers for compact, efficient motion control
ST’s GaNSPIN GaN motor driver family combines 650 V GaN half bridges and high-voltage gate drivers in a single system-in-package, bringing wide-bandgap efficiency to white goods and factory automation.
By precisely controlling switching times, GaNSPIN drivers cut motor stress and EMI, simplify EMC compliance, and enable cooler, smaller designs without heatsinks in many cases.
With low RDS(on), wide input voltage support, and robust integrated protections, they help designers boost motor performance, shrink PCB size by up to 60%, and meet demanding energy-efficiency standards.
