Hybrids and EVs have a substantial requirement for power conversion; a drive train can be operated up to 100s of kW. A typical silicon-based converter will be no more than 95% efficient, Pi Innovo says, therefore having at least a 5% loss. These losses, as heat, have to be dissipated. —Jim Witham, GaN Systems’ CEO.
