“Our fully scaled-up 300mm GaN manufacturing will allow us to deliver highest value to our customers even faster while moving towards cost parity for comparable silicon and GaN products,” says Infineon’s Johannes Schoiswohl. Infineon uses Si, SiC and GaN for power ICs.

Infineon claims to be first to develop 300mm GaN power wafer technology. Chip production on 300mm wafers is technically more advanced and s efficient compared to  200mm wafers.

The company has launched over 40 GaN products  in the past year.
