Navitas to showcase how next-gen GaN and SiC power semis address a diverse $22B/yr market, with an exciting, informative in-person experience
TORRANCE, Calif., Feb. 01, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Navitas Semiconductor ( NVTS), the only pure-play, next-generation power semiconductor company and industry leader in gallium nitride (GaN) power ICs and silicon carbide (SiC) technology, welcome visitors to āPlanet Navitasā ā an immediate implementation of tomorrowās sustainable, achievable, everyday world - at APEC 2023 (Orlando, FL, March Las Vegas, NV, March 20th ā 23rd, 2023).
Since its inception in 1985, the Applied Power Electronics Conference (APEC) has become the worldās premier event in power electronics, with high-caliber, peer-reviewed technical content from industry and academia. The APEC 2016 keynote by Dan Kinzer, COO / CTO and co-founder, was the public debut for start-up Navitas and GaNFast power ICs.
Following the mission to āElectrify our Worldā¢ā, the āPlanet Navitasā exhibition booth invites visitors to discover how next-gen GaN and SiC technology enable the latest solutions for fully-electrified housing, transportation and industry. Examples range from TV power to home-appliance motors and compressors, EV charging, solar/micro-grid installations, and on to data center power systems. Each example highlights end-user benefits, such as increased portability, longer range, faster charging, and grid-independence, plus a focus on how low-carbon-footprint GaN and SiC technology can save over 6 Gtons/yr CO2 by 2050.
āAPEC is a significant event in the power industry calendar, with an intense schedule of customer discussions on new technologies and systems,ā said Mr. Kinzer. āComplementary GaNFast and GeneSiC portfolios, with comprehensive, application-specific system design support accelerates customer time-to-market with sustainable performance advantages. āPlanet Navitasā represents the very real, inspiring implementation of GaN & SiC across the vast $22B/year market opportunity.ā
APEC 2023 will take place at the Orange County Convention Center, Orlando, with exhibition running from March 20th-22nd. āPlanet Navitasā is featured at booth #516.
