D 3 GaN technology has been shown to reduce the power losses by at least 50% while benefiting from the high-yield, low-cost proprietary design of GaN transistors. This optimization is important for the inverter design and manufacturing in order to minimize the required paralleling and to optimize the inverter cost.
