Navitas Power Forward with Next-Gen GaN and SiC Power Semiconductors at PCIM 2023

TORRANCE, Calif., April 12, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Navitas Semiconductor (Nasdaq: NVTS), the only pure-play, next-generation power semiconductor company, will introduce and display an expanded portfolio of leading-edge gallium nitride (GaN) and silicon carbide (SiC) power products at Europe’s prestigious PCIM 2023 conference.

Featuring over 400 international technical papers, with a comprehensive technology and application-focused conference program, PCIM – which takes place in Nuremberg, Germany, from 9th to 11th May - is Europe’s leading event for professionals involved in the fields of “power, control and intelligent motion”.

Visitors to the Navitas exhibition booth (Hall 9, #525) will discover how GaN and SiC deliver the advanced performance, functionality, reliability and ease-of-use demanded by next-generation EV, solar, energy storage, home appliance and industrial drives. Highlights include GaNFast™ power ICs that integrate GaN power, sensing and control in a single device, and robust, high-voltage, high-efficiency GeneSiC™ SiC semiconductors optimized for reliable operation in harsh-environment, high-power designs.

“PCIM is a key event in the power-electronics calendar,” says, Alessandro Squeri, Navitas’ senior director for European sales. “Continuing our ‘Electrify our World™’ mission, Navitas’ demonstrations, papers and panel discussions provide critical insight into how next-generation GaN and SiC deliver power-conversion and fast-charging solutions that could reduce global CO2 emissions by as much as six Gigatons per year by 2050.”

During this year’s conference Navitas will participate in the following sessions:

Tuesday 9th May
