GaN Wine Lounge. GaN stories, insights, and people

GaN Wine Lounge

GaN Wine Lounge is a relaxed video conversation series where we talk GaN - and beyond - with our customers, academic partners, editors, and EPC team members over a virtual glass of wine. In an informal, friendly atmosphere, we share real-world experiences, lessons learned, and fresh ideas. We also include short lab episodes, offering a behind-the-scenes look at experiments and real applications of EPC solutions. Together, we build connections, inspire collaboration, and celebrate the people and technologies shaping the future of GaN.

Scaling AI Power with GaN: Inside the Renesas–EPC Alliance

Posted Friday, July 10, 2026

This session explores how the second‑source and licensing agreement between Renesas and EPC is accelerating GaN adoption in AI data centers, automotive, robotics, and industrial applications. The speakers examine the shift to new “grid‑to‑core” 800 V DC architectures and show how low‑voltage GaN enables higher efficiency and power density. They discuss multi‑sourcing strategies, internal wafer fabrication for low‑voltage GaN, and the crucial role of advanced packaging and thermo‑mechanical reliability. The panel closes with a clear outlook on how this partnership will shape the next generation of GaN‑based power systems.
