Driving Innovation in AI, EV, Industrial, Solar, and Energy Storage
Navitas Semiconductor (Nasdaq: NVTS), a leader in next-generation GaNFast™ gallium nitride (GaN) and GeneSiC™ silicon carbide (SiC) power semiconductors, invites visitors to explore “Planet Navitas” at PCIM 2024. The event, from June 11th-13th in Nuremberg, Germany, will showcase how Navitas’ advanced GaN and SiC solutions deliver optimal performance across fast-growing markets and applications from 20 W to 20 MW.
Key Highlights at PCIM 2024
Now in its 25th year, PCIM is the premier international meeting place for industry specialists and a leading exhibition for power electronics. Aligned with Navitas’ mission to “Electrify Our World™”, the “Planet Navitas” booth will demonstrate how next-gen GaN and SiC technology enable the latest solutions for fully-electrified EV transportation, AI data centers, industrial compressors, drives, robotics, renewable energy sourcing, and energy storage.
Innovations on Display
- GaNSafe™: The world’s most-protected, reliable, and highest-performance GaN power.
- Gen-4 GaNSense™ Half-Bridge ICs: The most integrated GaN devices available.
- Gen-3 Fast GeneSiC power FETs: Game-changing devices for motor drive and energy storage applications.
Technical Presentations
June 11th, 13:00 – 14:30, Hall 10.1:
- “Low-Cost High-Density 300 W / 20 V AC-DC Converter Enabled by GaN Power ICs”
- Tom Ribarich, Sr. Director of Strategic Marketing at Navitas Semiconductor, will present a new 300 W high-density AC-to-DC converter achieving over 96% peak efficiency and 270 cc. The design, featuring GaN Power ICs, utilizes a 2-phase interleaved PFC input stage, an LLC DC-DC stage, and a synchronous rectification output stage, running at 300 kHz. This design results in a power density of 1.1 W/cc.
June 12th, 15:30 – 17:00, Foyer:
- “Evaluation of SiC Devices for Over 500 kHz Application Based on Buck Circuit”
- Minli Jia, Sr. Staff Applications Engineer at Navitas Semiconductor, will evaluate three 1200 V SiC devices from different manufacturers. A Buck converter with an output power of 3.6 kW and a switching frequency of 600 kHz was designed for this study. Tests showed that SiC with fast turn-off characteristics and low thermal resistance was more suitable for high-frequency converter applications.
Navitas’ Vision and Market Impact
“PCIM is a key event in the power-electronics calendar,” says Alessandro Squeri, Navitas’ senior director for European sales. He highlights that Navitas’ GaNFast and GeneSiC portfolios, combined with comprehensive system design support, accelerate customer time-to-market with sustainable performance advantages.
Navitas’ next-gen GaN and SiC technology is set to deliver increased portability, longer range, faster charging, and grid independence. The company’s solutions also focus on a low-carbon footprint, aiming to save over 6 Gtons/yr CO2 by 2050.
