Driving GaN Into The Fast Lane
Ask EPC’s chief executive, Alex Lidow, what the future holds for his GaN power device business, and automotive certification features prominently.
Recently delivering AEC Q101-qualified 80 V discrete transistors for LiDAR, 48V power distribution systems and other applications, the company’s latest enhancement-mode FETs deliver higher switching frequencies and efficiencies than silicon MOSFETs, in a smaller footprint. And this is just the beginning.
“We have more transistors as well as integrated circuits designed for LiDAR [sensors] and are proceeding with automotive certification here,” highlights Lidow. “LiDAR is under intense cost and performance pressure so integrating components and improving performance while lowering the cost is a big deal.”
