Advanced GaN Semiconductor Tech Enables High Power Densities

July 27, 2022
NexGen Power explains their vertical GaN transistor technology and how it can create power supplies that deliver high voltages and currents.

Check out our DAC 2022 coverage.

NexGen Power’s Vertical GaN, presented as the first GaN-on-GaN power semiconductor technology, is unlocking improvements in power conversion. Gallium-nitride (GaN) transistors offer increased breakdown voltage and higher switching frequencies than silicon and silicon carbide (SiC). Vertical GaN devices have resilience to unexpected voltage disturbances, are self-healing, and supported circuits can often eschew external voltage-clamping components.
