Abstract - "Qorvo GaN on SiC: 15 Years of Reliability and Producibility"
In this webinar, Qorvo will review the status of GaN technology today, and the few still remaining challenges. After 15 years of government and private industry investment, GaN on SiC RF FET technology is today a reality. Steadily, the traction of GaN on SiC technology has increased among many businesses and today, you can find GaN on SiC FET technology on radars, base stations and cable TV products. GaN on SiC market penetration has been driven not just by the outstanding intrinsic RF performance showed almost from day one, but by the advancements on the understanding of its physics of failure and the consequent improvements of its reliability. Emphasis will be given to the aspects unique to GaN on SiC; improvements on GaN on SiC producibility, including some of the data accumulated over 15 years of fabrication.
