EPC highlighting power electronics solutions at APEC
In booth #1045 at the IEEE Applied Power Electronics Conference & Exposition (APEC 2024) in Long Beach, CA, USA (25–29 February), Efficient Power Conversion Corp (EPC) of El Segundo, CA, USA — which makes enhancement-mode gallium nitride on silicon (eGaN) power field-effect transistors (FETs) and integrated circuits for power management applications — is highlighting what it claims is the industry’s most comprehensive portfolio of GaN-based power conversion solutions. With a focus on efficiency, reliability and performance, EPC says that its GaN-based products offer advantages for applications such as DC-DC converters, motor drives, and renewable energy.
Also at APEC 2024, EPC is giving the following technical presentations:
