Roadblocks to GaN Adoption in Power Systems
EPC Releases Lowest On-Resistance Rad Hard Transistor for Demanding Space Applications
Efficient Power Conversion (EPC) expands its family of radiation-hardened (rad-hard) gallium nitride (GaN) products for power conversion solutions in critical spaceborne and other high reliability environments with a device that has the lowest on-resistance of any rad hard transistor currently available on the market.

GaN Reliability and Lifetime Projections
Keynote Speaker: Alex Lidow, Ph.D., CEO and Co-Founder of Efficient Power Conversion
The rapid adoption of GaN devices in many diverse applications calls for continued accumulation of reliability statistics and research into the fundamental physics of failure in GaN devices. Alex Lidow will speak about the strategy used to measure and predict lifetime based upon tests that force devices to fail under a variety of conditions. This information can be used to create stronger and higher performance products for the industry.
Power Design with GaN for Space Apps: Q&A with EPC CEO Alex Lidow
Unlike silicon, requiring custom manufacturing processes and packaging to insulate semiconductors from radiation effects, gallium nitride (GaN) devices are largely resistant to damage caused by radiation due to physical characteristics and structure.
Those attributes can be leveraged in the design of satellites. Orbiting electronics must withstand the effects of gamma rays, neutrons and heavy ions. Protons make up 85 percent of space radiation, while heavier nuclei make up the remainder. Radiation can deteriorate, interrupt knock out satellite electronic components.
25 Autonomous Vehicles Influencers to Follow by 2020
The ultimate aim of Artificial Intelligence is to provide machines the ability to operate autonomously. One such area which is projected to grow exponentially over the next decade is Autonomous Vehicles. With Artificial Intelligence coupled with the rapid advances in electronics and computer technology, the word driverless will soon take over the roads.
