Commercialization of High 600V GaN-on-Silicon Power Devices
Abstract:
With power conversion losses endemic in all areas of electricity consumption, broadlycategorized into motion control (accounting for around 50% of total electrical energy use), lighting,air conditioning, and information technology, consumers, governments and utilities are finding waysto achieve higher efficiency. Manufacturers of data servers, telecom systems, solar power invertersand drives for motor control are focused on reducing power conversion losses while simultaneouslyshrinking the size of power systems. Although silicon has historically been the base device materialused by the power conversion industry, it is rapidly reaching its physical performance limits. GaNsemiconductors solutions reduce power conversion loss by over 50% in a significantly smaller formfactor and at a lower cost, when device design, fabrication technology and application design areholistically combined to deliver superior end products.
