EPC showcases GaN power solutions for robotics, drones and AI servers at PCIM Europe 2026 - Electronics360

At PCIM Europe 2026, EPC showcased its gallium nitride (GaN) power solutions across emerging technologies including robotics, drones, and AI servers, highlighting GaN's superior efficiency and perform... Read original →

EPC’s strategic showcase at PCIM Europe 2026 isn’t just product promotion—it’s a bid to define next-gen power standards. GaN’s high-frequency, low-loss profile forces redesigns across the stack: from PMICs and magnetics to thermal systems, accelerating 48V adoption in AI racks. Geopolitically, tightening Western export controls on wide-bandgap semiconductors raise supply chain costs, especially if EPC relies on Taiwan, China-based foundries like Win Semiconductors. Competitors like Infineon and Navitas will counter by fast-tracking data-center and automotive GaN platforms to erode EPC’s industrial edge. Over the next 18 months, GaN will command a performance premium in sub-3kW high-density power, but unless it deepens system-level integration—beyond discrete devices—it risks being cornered into niche applications as SiC pressures mount in higher-voltage segments.
