Navitas showcasing production GaNFast-powered fast mobile chargers at CPSSC
At the China Power Supply Society Conference (CPSSC 2019) in Shenzhen, China (1-4 November), Navitas Semiconductor Inc of El Segundo, CA, USA is showcasing more than 20 production GaNFast-powered fast mobile chargers.
Founded in 2014, Navitas introduced what it claimed to be the first commercial GaN power ICs. The firm says that its proprietary ‘AllGaN’ process design kit (PDK) monolithically integrates GaN power field-effect transistors (FETs) with GaN logic and analog circuits, enabling faster charging, higher power density and greater energy savings for mobile, consumer, enterprise, eMobility and new energy markets.
“CPSSC is the highlight of the Asian power electronics calendar, with over 450 peer-reviewed technical papers and over 1500 attendees from industry and academia,” notes Stephen Oliver, VP sales & marketing. “The exhibition is a strong platform for Navitas to display 20+ production GaNFast chargers, demonstrating the aggressive adoption of gallium nitride for high-power yet small and lightweight mobile chargers,” he adds.
“As a Diamond sponsor of CPSSC, with industry presentations and an exciting series of customer and partner meetings, Navitas once again shows commitment to bring GaNFast technology to Chinese customers.” says Yingjie (Charles) Zha, country manager of Navitas Semiconductor (China). “We are very pleased with customers’ adoption speed and innovation across a wide range of mobile, 5G, AI and IoT markets, using GaNFast monolithic integration to enable a new class of high-frequency, high-efficiency and high-density power systems.”
Navitas is showcasing both its own GaN power ICs and GaN-enabled power systems on the exhibition floor (booth A007) and during the technology presentations.
