Navitas and PowerAmerica Accelerate Next-Gen Semiconductors to “Electrify our World™”
2022年4月19日 - 9:30PM
Navitas Semiconductor (Nasdaq: NVTS), the industry-leader in
gallium nitride (GaN) power integrated circuits (ICs), has
announced its membership of PowerAmerica, the consortium working to
accelerate the adoption of next generation GaN and silicon carbide
(SiC) power electronics.
Established in 2014, PowerAmerica brings together the brightest
minds and leading innovators in the world of wide-bandgap (WBG)
semiconductors. As a member of PowerAmerica, Navitas will provide
input into initiatives to help companies that use power
semiconductors to upgrade beyond legacy silicon, and access
resources and relationships contributing to business growth.
GaN is a next-generation, WBG technology that runs up to 20x
faster than legacy silicon and enables up to 3x more power, 40%
energy savings and 3x faster charging in half the size and weight.
Navitas’ GaNFast™ power ICs integrate GaN power and drive plus
sensing, protection and control to deliver simple, small, fast and
efficient power conversion performance. With adoption by customers
including Samsung, Dell, Xiaomi, Lenovo and LG, this technology is
now available with a 20-year limited warranty - a critical
accelerator for GaN’s adoption into higher-power data center, solar
and EV markets.
“The upgrade from legacy silicon to WBG semiconductors is
critical to supporting environmental goals by dramatically reducing
power consumption and accelerating the adoption of sustainable
technologies,” said Dan Kinzer, Navitas’ COO/CTO and co-founder.
“The consortium’s membership network of entrepreneurs,
technologists and academic partners is helping to drive this
revolution and we are excited to be part of this
increasingly-important eco-system.”
Navitas Sr Director of Marketing, Llew Vaughan-Edmunds, is
currently the chairman of PowerAmerica and will lead the MAC
meeting during the PowerAmerica 2022 Summer Workshop on NC State
Campus in Raleigh, NC on August 2nd. Navitas will host a technology
seminar at the workshop to introduce leading-edge GaNFast power ICs
with GaNSense™ technology, and stress high-quality, high-capacity
manufacturing with over 40,000,000 units shipped and zero reported
GaN-related field failures.
Professor Victor Veliadis, PowerAmerica’s Executive Director and
CTO, adds: “With its proven integrated-GaN technology and its focus
on applications that range from consumer electronics through
electric vehicles to data centers and solar power, Navitas brings
important technology and solutions knowledge to the PowerAmerica
eco-system. We look forward to working with the company’s
leadership and engineering teams in support of our objective to
accelerate the next generation of power electronics.”
