High Density Power Electronics (HDPE)

All-GaN Power Supply

All GaN Power Supply Unit

Taking advantage of SiC and GaN's substantially reduced gate and output charges, as well as advanced soft switching technique and high frequency magnetics, the HDPE research focuses on achieving extreme high power efficiency and power density at the same time. Targeted applications include computing and data center power supply, EV on board charges, wireless power transfer, stationary energy storage devices as well as residential solar inverters.
