GaN Systems agrees distribution deal with Ecomal Europe
GaN Systems’ gallium nitride power transistors are based on the company’s proprietary Island Technology and offer advantages compared with traditional silicon MOSFETs and IGBTs to bring smaller, lighter and more efficient power electronics to numerous applications. GaN Systems selected Ecomal Europe for its expertise in power systems and complementary line card.
The partnership is seen as synergistic by both GaN Systems and Ecomal Europe, because many of GaN Systems’ prospective customers in the region already have a relationship with Ecomal Europe and the company’s technical knowledge in applications is suited to GaN high power switching devices, including inverters, UPS, hybrid electric vehicles/electric vehicles and high voltage DC-DC conversion.
GaN Systems is the first company to have developed and brought a comprehensive product range of devices with current ratings from 8 A to 250 A to the global market – its Island Technology die design, combined with its extremely low inductance and thermally efficient GaNPX packaging and Drive Assist technology means the company’s GaN transistors offer a 40-fold improvement in switching and conduction performance over traditional silicon MOSFETs and IGBTs.
