About this presentation

GaN power solutions were introduced into the semiconductor market less than 10 years ago. This technology enables designers to achieve unprecedented performance in terms of power conversion efficiency and power density, which are directly connected to the effort to reduce CO2 emissions and increase battery ranges.

The GaN components available in the market today are yet to achieve their theoretical limits, nevertheless, they are already being integrated into high power automotive applications, such as OBC, DCDC and Traction Inverters.
