The Race to Cut the Power Cord is Already Happening

The year is 2022. You sit down at your office desk, back from Ikea with your new lamp. You take it out of the box, place it on the table, and it illuminates the workspace immediately. You then take your MacBook out of your backpack, place it to the right of the lamp, and it starts charging instantly. It sounds unreasonable to think that all this could become reality in just a few years. But behind closed doors, this technology already exists.

“A couple of months ago, we demonstrated an entire table top where everything on it was powered wirelessly,” Alex Lidow, CEO of EPC, tells Inverse. “A lamp, computer monitor, computer, cell phones being charged… all sorts of stuff.”

Why a world without power cords is now within reach

Since Nikola Tesla first experimented with wireless power during the early 1900s, there has been a quest to “cut the cord” – and go wireless. Today’s applications for wireless power undoubtedly extend far beyond Tesla’s wildest imagination, as we now have the ability to wirelessly charge cell phones, power tools, and even buses while at their scheduled stops, not to mention airborne drones while flying. However, despite strong consumer and business demand for wireless charging, power cords still reign. What explains the lag in our ability to power all of our electronic devices and appliances wirelessly?

一位科学家的自述:曾为世界节省15%的电量,如今找到硅的替代物

这位在40年前成为博士的科学家曾为世界节省了15%电量,如今他正继续自己的创新之旅,为人类找到了硅的全新替代材料。

我父亲常常教导我:一个人的真正价值,是通过他对社会所作出的贡献来衡量的。1975年我进入研究生院学习,那时我的兴趣在半导体领域,并且认为我对社会最大的贡献,就是找到可以替代硅的半导体材料。我的研究生毕业课题从围绕砷化镓展开,但是直到在1977年获得博士学位后,我才发现,作为一种半导体材料,砷化镓受其基本材料特性所影响,它的应用前景非常有限,于是我转而专注于研究如何制造出更好的硅基器件。

GaN FETs Drive Fidelity and Efficiency in Class-D Audio Amplifiers

With the current maturity of Class-D audio amplifier architectures, amplifier fidelity and efficiency limitations are primarily at the device level. Silicon MOSFETs have been evolving for almost forty years, and their progress towards a perfect switch has slowed dramatically. There are some fundamental characteristics of MOSFETs that degrade sound quality and efficiency. In 2010, the enhancement mode Gallium nitride (GaN) power FET was introduced by Efficient Power Conversion (EPC), providing a large step towards the perfect switch.

硅基氮化镓功率器件如何把硅基功率MOSFET逐出市场

氮化镓(GaN)功率晶体管专为高效电源转换而设计,投产已经有7年了。由于氮化镓器件具备优越的开关速度,因此它推动了新兴市场的发展,例如激光雷达、包络跟踪及无线充电市场。 这些市场使得氮化镓产品得以大量投产、实现低生产成本及高可靠性。 这些优势对于就算是比较保守的设计工程师来说,都是十分吸引的,使得他们在诸如DC/DC转换器、AC/DC转换器及汽车应用中,开始了对氮化镓器件进行评估。那么,目前120亿美元的硅基功率MOSFET市场在转为氮化镓晶体管市场的过程中,还有什么阻力吗?信心。
