Discussing the Wide-Bandgap Marketplace | Electronic Design

Wide-bandgap technologies, silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN), are transforming power applications by enabling faster switching, higher efficiency, and greater power density than traditional silicon devices, allowing engineers to design smaller, lighter, and more energy-efficient power systems. That’s helping drive innovation in electric vehicles, renewable energy, data centers, and industrial automation. 

The positive evolution of Nexperia’s market segments is in line with the overall trend of strong demand in Computing and Data Storage applications, driven by continued investments in AI infrastructure and data centers. At the same time, the broader automotive and industrial markets continued to show encouraging developments. We spoke to some Nexperia executives, Filippo Scrimizzi and Olaf Vogt, about their impressions and perspectives on the power semiconductor marketplace.
