This paper proposes an asymmetric Single-Chip-Prepackage (SCP) with thick Cu substrate for the optimum electrical and thermal performance of the GaN-HEMT devices. Additionally, the package features a Ni-based integrated thermistor. Laboratory demonstrators have been fabricated using PCB embedding technology. A full electrical characterization of the packaged device indicates full functionality. The temperature coefficient of the integrated temperature sensor is 𝛼 = 0.00541 /𝐾. Thermal characterization of the SCP shows a junction to heatsink thermal resistance Rth,jh = 3.34 K/W, which is 36 % less than the commercial reference device. A silver sinter based assembly process for system integration of SCP is introduced in view of a planar thermal interface. In a 300 kHz 48 V to 24 V buck-converter operation with 60 Arms output current, a 98% efficiency is achieved.
