Navitas teams with Japanese sales & marketing partner J Rep at Techno-Frontier
Gallium nitride (GaN) power IC and silicon carbide (SiC) technology firm Navitas Semiconductor of Torrance, CA, USA is teaming up with its Japanese sales & marketing partner J Rep (which specializes in power electronics) at Japan’s largest power electronics trade show, Techno-Frontier 2024, at the Tokyo Big Sight Exhibition Center (24–26 July) to highlight solutions including a hybrid GaN-SiC AI server power supply unit (PSU), a 3-phase GaN industrial motor drive requiring no heat-sink, and a GaN-based 8K-LED TV power supply that enables the thinnest and highest-efficiency solution.
Navitas and J Rep are highlighting key technologies and new products including GaNSafe (which is claimed to be the world’s most protected, most reliable and highest-performance GaN power IC for high-power, mission-critical applications such as AI data centers), Gen-4 GaNSense Half-Bridge ICs (said to be the most integrated GaN devices) and Gen-3 Fast GeneSiC power FETs (which use ‘trench-assisted planar’ technology for what is claimed to be world-leading performance over temperature, suiting EV and industrial systems).
“With the ability to operate at higher efficiencies and frequencies, Navitas’ GaN and SiC next-generation clean energy semiconductors bring significant benefits to AI data centers, EV, energy storage systems (ESS), motor control, and fast-charging applications,” says Navitas’ Japan representative Takashi Murayama. “Techno-Frontier provides an ideal platform for Navitas to showcase these next-generation technologies to system engineers and key decision makers in these sectors, and show how they enable these fast-growing markets.”
Information on Navitas’ SiC and GaN products is on display at J Rep’s booth (Hall 3, booth 3F-16).
