GaN Systems giving presentations and customer demonstrations at Wireless Power Week

At Wireless Power Week (WPW 2019) in London, UK (17-21 June), GaN Systems Inc of Ottawa, Ontario, Canada (a fabless developer of gallium nitride-based power switching semiconductors for power conversion and control applications) is delivering presentations and displaying wireless power transfer solutions enabled by gallium nitride.

VP strategic marketing Paul Wiener is giving a talk ‘Moving to a World Without Wires’ in a joint IEEE MTT-S Wireless Power Transfer Conference (WPTC) and IEEE PELS Workshop on Emerging Technologies: Wireless Power (WoW) session on 18 June (1:45pm). Also, GaN Systems’ RF power and wireless power expert Tiefeng Shi is giving a poster presentation on ‘High Power WPT System For Through the Wall Applications’.

Customer demonstrations

GaN Systems is showcasing wireless charging devices and technologies from customers and partners as well as design tools and reference designs. GaN transistors are enabling higher-power-level applications from 30W up to several kilowatts – much greater than achieved with traditional silicon solutions – and opening the door for charging not just a single cell phone but several at the same time as well as laptops, drones, robots, tabletop electronics, industrial power tools, eBikes etc.

Demonstrations include:

a multi-device charging, dual-mode solution from PowerSphyr;
an off-the-shelf, 300W end-to-end wireless power system for aerial, mobile, marine and industrial robots from WiBotic;
a 700W wireless power charging system for scooters from Bumblebee;
a 150W wireless power solutions designed for industrial and consumer applications from NuCurrent; and
a 70W, high-efficiency through-wall application enabling power from inside a home or commercial building to power devices on the outside of the building without drilling holes and routing power cords.

“We’re seeing a growing number of companies using GaN to make their wireless power transfer systems more efficient and to overcome the current technical challenges in the market,” says Paul Wiener, VP of strategic marketing. “Today those looking to implement wireless power now have off-the-shelf complete end-to-end solutions readily available from our partners to help them get to market quickly.”
