Electrification of the powertrain
With every gram of CO₂ exhaust being vital in today’s cars, it is driving the move to vehicle electrification. From hybrids through to full electric vehicles, electrification of the powertrain is expected to dominate power semiconductor market growth in the next two decades. The power density and efficiency of GaN-on-Si will play a leading role in this space, specifically for on-board-chargers (EV charging), DC/DC converters and motor drive traction inverters (xEV traction inverters).
Partnering with Ricardo to develop GaN-based EV inverter design
GaN FET technology leads to systems with greater efficiencies at lower costs. With improved thermal performance and simpler switching topologies, leading to greater range for electric vehicles. GaN is now on the brink of replacing silicon based IGBTs and SiC as the preferred technology for the traction inverters used in plug-in hybrids or full battery electric cars.
