In the field of consumer electronics, GaN devices are currently the fastest power switching devices and can maintain high efficiency even in high-speed switching. They can be applied to smaller components and can effectively reduce product size when applied to chargers.

From the technical perspective, the size of chargers using GaN technology can be reduced by 30-50% compared to traditional silicon-based chargers. At the same time, the overall system efficiency is greatly improved. Under the same size and output power, the shell temperature of the charger will be lower than that of traditional chargers.

With the increasing demand for fast charging, the use of GaN power devices can make the adapters and chargers lighter. In the future, the GaN charger market is about to enter a period of rapid growth and will increasingly play its important role.

With the rapid development of electric vehicles, the demand for energy conservation and efficiency has also increased. Therefore, the most mainstream car companies have begun to apply GaN in various parts of the car, especially in key areas such as car chargers and high-voltage DC converters. The low switching loss of GaN can significantly improve the operational efficiency of electric vehicles, thereby reducing the burden on the onboard cooling system and increasing the range of electric vehicles. Secondly, the high switching frequency of GaN transistors can reduce the size of power magnetic devices by about 60%, reduce system costs, improve overall power density, and open up new possibilities for the development of new energy vehicles.

With the advent of the 5G era, the construction of the 5G base station will greatly drive the market of GaN RF and power devices. Due to the heat dissipation and power characteristics of GaN, which can better meet the requirements of 5G base stations, and with the decrease in GaN device costs and the maturity of processes, GaN materials are expected to become the mainstream material for base station PA.

GaN significantly reduces power loss when used in motor drive applications, while also avoiding high switching rate issues that affect reliability and EMI compatibility. GaN devices have now been shown to have good characteristics that are sufficient to deal with problems such as stress and short circuits that often occur in motor drive applications. GaN devices are no longer simply novel products and their value has been reflected in the DC output power converter. They have now been shown to also have the potential to reduce the system costs of motor drives,which provides new markets for GaN device applications.

Data centers require a large amount of power supply and efficient energy management. GaN power devices can provide more efficient power conversion and smaller equipment, reducing energy consumption and space occupation. In addition, GaN is used as a high-speed communication module in data centers, providing faster, more stable, and reliable data transmission.

From small solar panels to large solar panels, solar inverters based on GaN  can improve the overall efficiency of photovoltaic systems. GaN plays a key role in improving efficiency and reducing system cost and volume.

In addition, a growing number of solar panels are equipped with energy storage systems that can store energy for later use. Solar systems using GaN have low energy transmission losses and high efficiency energy conversion.
