To support its accelerating growth in the defense & aerospace markets, 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 – has appointed Spirit Electronics as a distribution partner focusing on these key market segments.

Operating since 1979 and located in Phoenix, Arizona and Irvine, California, Spirit Electronics supplies products and services to the US Department of Defense, aerospace and telecom industries.

“Spirit Electronics’ knowledge of the market, along with their extensive history and proven successful track record for working with defense and aerospace customers, make them a perfect partner for representing EPC’s industry-leading, off-the-shelf eGaN FET and IC product line,” comments EPC’s VP of sales & marketing Nick Cataldo.

“Our new partnership with EPC is an exciting addition to our portfolio of products and will allow us to bring the superior performance of eGaN power transistors and ICs to defense and aerospace customers, so they can design leading-edge power system solutions,” says Spirit Electronics’ CEO Marti McCurdy.
