Strategy Analytics: SiC and GaN-based Power Electronics to Boost Automotive Semiconductor Efficiencies and Profitability?
Summary
The Strategy Analytics Powertrain Body Chassis & Safety (PBCS) service report, “HEV-EV Semiconductor Technology Outlook: What Role will SiC and GaN Play? While the power electronics market for wideband semiconductors is at an early stage, it offers significant upside potential for companies that are able to leverage the growing opportunity from the HEV/EV sector. “SiC is the more mature of the two technologies with 650V and 1200V parts starting to compete with Si-based components for the main inverter as well as getting some traction into the DC-DC converter and the OBC (on-board charger)”, noted Chris Webber, Senior VP of the Global Automotive Practice at Strategy Analytics.
