The ULTIMATEGaN project aims to develop new semiconductors using gallium nitride technology to make the European industrial sector a global benchmark in next-generation gallium nitride technology.
The new project will also make possible the new emerging 5G-RF market and high-performance power applications developed in Europe, providing state-of-the-art technology through collaboration channels for research and innovation.
our contribution
IKERLAN’s contribution, with the involvement of the Power Electronics area, will be as follows:
- Development of a wireless charger for electric or hybrid cars, based on the GaN semiconductor samples developed in the project.
- Study and assessment of the benefits of gallium nitride for vehicle charger application.
- Validation of electro-thermal characteristics and reliability under real application conditions at the IKERLAN laboratory.
