🌍✨ A closer look at GaN switches: benefits, limitations and gate-drive challenges
Why we’re watching: Switches based on the wide band-gap semiconductors SiC (silicon carbide) and GaN (gallium nitride) have been gaining market share on their conventional silicon counterparts over the last decade or so because they deliver lower total losses at higher switchi…
SiC MOSFETs are far more popular than GaN (MOS)FETs, however, and the parenthetical aside, “(MOS)FETs,” is the first clue why: GaN switches can be constructed in numerous ways, with differing behaviors between them. 💚
GaN does have its advantages, and in some applications, it is no hyperbole to call it a game-changer.
