EPC participating at APEC 2021
At the Applied Power Electronics Conference (APEC) Virtual Conference + Exposition being held online on 14-17 June, Efficient Power Conversion Corp (EPC) of El Segundo, CA, USA – which makes enhancement-mode gallium nitride on silicon (eGaN) power field-effect transistors (FETs) for power management applications – is delivering multiple technical presentations, an educational tutorial, and an exhibitor webinar on GaN technology and applications.
In addition, the firm is participate in the event’s virtual exhibition, showcasing its latest eGaN FETs and ICs in customers’ end products that are rapidly adopting eGaN technology.
In the virtual exhibition, EPC experts will be available to discuss eGaN devices in several applications including: high-performance 48V DC-DC power conversion for automotive and advanced computing applications; high-power nanosecond pulsed laser drivers for light detection & ranging (LiDAR) systems used in robotics, drones and autonomous vehicles (AVs); and precision motor drives for robotics, drones and eMobility.
Technical presentations and seminars featuring eGaN FETs and ICs by EPC include:
- ‘Examples of Applications Benefitting from the Monolithic GaN Power Stage and Redefining the State of the Art’ (Industry Session IS04.3);
- ‘A 1 kW eGaN FET-Based LLC Resonant Converter in the 1/8th Power Brick Size for 48 V Server Applications’ (Industry Session IS07.1);
- ‘How the Monolithic Integration of Power, Analog, and Digital Components in GaN-on-Si Technology Is Changing Power Conversion’ (Industry Session IS08.3);
- ‘eGaN FETs and ICs enable next-generation motor drives, robot, drones, eBikes and eScooters’ (Industry Session IS15.2);
- ‘Physics-Based Models of eGaN Device Failure Mechanisms’ (Industry Session IS6.3);
- ‘EPC eGaN FETs Enables MPS High Power Density, Fixed-Ratio Intermediate Bus Converters’ (Industry Session IS20.1);
- ‘Professional Education Seminar: Maximizing GaN FET and IC Performance’ (Session S16);
- Exhibitor Seminar: ‘How GaN is Driving Changes in Autonomy, Automotive, and eMobility’.
EPC’s team of GaN Experts will be online during PCIM to discuss live the latest advances in gallium nitride technology and to support customer design efforts.
