GaN Breaks Through Performance Barriers (.PDF Download)

April 1, 2016

Gallium-nitride (GaN) technology has officially arrived, as applications ranging from defense to commercial cellular exploit its performance benefits—benefits that are simply unavailable with older semiconductor technology like gallium-arsenide (GaAs). Today, a number of different suppliers offer an array of GaN devices. And GaN shows no signs of slowing down, as it will likely find its way into more future applications. So expect the GaN train to keep rolling along, with suppliers continuing to develop and deliver new cutting-edge GaN products...
