VisIC Technologies Ltd of Ness Ziona, Israel – a fabless supplier of power conversion devices based on gallium nitride (GaN) transistors – says that its D3GaN (Direct Drive D-Mode) chip technology has been used by automotive technology company hofer powertrain of Nürtingen, Germany to develop new multi-level power electronics. Tests prove that the new solution’s efficiency and power density exceed the capabilities of silicon-based technology, the firm adds. The new 3Level GaN Inverter is said to have proven its capabilities on the test bench, confirming significantly better switching speed and smaller and lighter package size, reducing total system cost...
