Inarguably, GaN power semiconductors are a hot topic in power electronics. Two transistor variations prevail today: normally-off d-mode GaN and e-mode GaN. When confronted with the choice, the debate at times inexplicably leans toward e-mode. In reality, normally-off d-mode GaN proves to be a fundamentally superior platform in performance, reliability, versatility, manufacturability, and practical application. The … [More] about The Fundamental Advantages of Normally-Off D-Mode GaN
