GaN Systems 出貨兩千萬個 GaN 功率電晶體

2021年將達成 40 倍的産能擴張 氮化鎵功率半導體全球領導廠商 GaN Systems 今天宣布 GaN 功率電晶體產品出貨量已達兩千萬顆,製造夥伴正按計劃在 2021 年底前完成 40 倍的産能擴張 。 此次的産能擴張是為了滿足 GaN 功率電晶體在不同應用市場中的下一波訂單,除手機與電腦快充充電器及變電器外,GaN Systems 的功率電晶體也用於高階音響,數據中心電源,工業電機驅動器,雷射驅動器,醫療器材電源供應器,衛星和航空航太系統以及電動車動力系統中。 GaN Systems 完整且性能與可靠性受市場認證的 100V 和 650V 産品組合,提供不同產業客戶高效率、高功率密度的設計優勢,同時減小産品尺寸,重量和開發成本,這些 GaN功率半導體為電力電子系統所帶來的顯著性能提升,正與現存矽和 SiC功率半導體相較勁,並快速獲得市場認可。 GaN 在生產製造上的成本與 SiC 相比便宜很多,後者需要更昂貴和複雜的製造工藝。 增加 SiC 產能所需的成本比 GaN 整整高10倍。GaN 的製程現有矽製程相近,多數設備可沿用,因此在初期需要的資本投資較少,同時 GaN 基板也不像 SiC 那導昂貴,因此 GaN 電晶體的生產成本遠低於 SiC。隨技術不段演進,目前 GaN 電晶體的價格僅為幾年前的一半,故採用 GaN 功率電晶體設計的整體系統成本,與採用現有矽功率元件的設計相比,十分相近,甚至可能更低。 「我們在産品設計上的專業,産品廣度以及與客戶的合作關係,幫助我們建立業界最完整的氮化鎵功率電晶體產品組合。能達到這樣的里程碑,不僅來自於營運規模的快速增長,同時也因為我們製造夥伴台積電作為強勁後盾,提供滿足市場需求産能,」 GaN Systems 全球執行長 Jim Witham…
