Navitas’ GaN & SiC Devices Power Dell’s™ Family of AI Notebooks
February 05 2025 - 8:30AM
Navitas Semiconductor (Nasdaq: NVTS), the industry leader in
next-generation GaNFast gallium nitride (GaN) and GeneSiC silicon
carbide (SiC) power semiconductors, today announced its adoption of
both technologies into Dell’s family of notebook adapters, from 60
W to 360 W.
Enabled by over 20 years of SiC technology
leadership, GeneSiC leads on performance of SiC MOSFETs with
patented ‘trench-assisted planar’ technology and 5th-gen GeneSiC
silicon carbide (SiC) diodes to deliver high-speed, high-efficiency
performance with proprietary ’low-knee’ technology for cool
operation.
Navitas’ GaNFast power ICs enable
high-frequency, high-efficiency power conversion, achieving 3x more
power and 3x faster charging in half the size and weight compared
to prior designs with legacy silicon power devices.
Navitas GaN & SiC technology together
enables Dell to provide high-speed charging, with highest
efficiency, coolest temperature, smallest size, and lowest material
count. Dell’s latest line-up of AI notebooks includes Neural
Processor Units (NPUs), which are dedicated AI engines, to manage
sustained AI and AI offload. This builds on Dell’s portfolio as the
broadest GaN adapter offering for notebooks in the industry.
The new adapters will also help Dell achieve its
advanced sustainability goals, with a focus on CO2 reduction and
energy reduction. The adapter cases require up to 50% less plastic
and are made with post-recycled materials, significantly reducing
energy waste, and improving resource utilization. Navitas’ GaNFast
and GeneSiC technologies increase the level of system integration
and switching frequency, which reduces the number of components, as
well as the size, resulting in a ‘dematerialization’ that lowers
carbon footprint throughout the production, packaging, and
logistics processes. Each GaNFast power IC shipped saves 4 kg CO2
and every SiC MOSFET shipped saves 25 kg CO2 vs. legacy silicon
power chips.
“Since Dell’s first GaN adapter was enabled by
Navitas back in 2020, we’ve worked closely with Dell engineering to
further improve charging speed, efficiency, size, weight, and now
environmental footprint,” said Gene Sheridan, CEO and co-founder of
Navitas. “Dell’s new adapters are an optimal solution for speed,
portability, and sustainability. Our clients achieve a win-win for
both the market and environment by deploying Navitas GaNFast power
ICs and GeneSiC power devices.”
