Navitas Appoints New Senior Director as GaN Powers Industry Shift
Navitas, a leading power semiconductor company, has appointed Dr. Llew Vaughan-Edmunds as its Senior Director of Product Management and Marketing. The company specializes in Gallium Nitride (GaN) technology, which is transforming power supplies across various industries.
GaN's unique properties allow for smaller, more efficient power supplies. In data centers, this means server power supplies can be reduced in size, freeing up space for additional storage or logic. GaN is also used in tiny mobile chargers, demonstrating its versatility.
The benefits of GaN extend to consumer electronics like HDTVs, where power supplies have been significantly shrunk. In electric vehicles, GaN solutions result in smaller, cooler, and more efficient power supplies with a minor weight reduction.
Navitas leverages GaN to create hot-swappable server power supplies. This feature enables continuous operation during failure and replacement, ensuring minimal downtime for critical systems.
Dr. Llew Vaughan-Edmunds' appointment at Navitas comes as the company continues to innovate in GaN technology. By shrinking power supplies and improving efficiency, Navitas is driving progress in data centers, consumer electronics, and electric vehicles.
