GaN HEMT Die Market Overview
Gallium nitride (GaN) transistors offer fundamental advantages over silicon. In particular, the higher critical electrical field makes it very attractive for power semiconductor devices with outstanding specific dynamic on-state resistance and smaller capacitances compared to silicon MOSFETs, which makes GaN HEMTs great for high speed switching applications. Gallium nitride transistors can then be operated with reduced dead-times which results in higher efficiency and enables passive cooling. Operation at high switching frequencies allows the volume of passive components to shrink which improves GaN HEMTs reliability and overall power density.
