Increasingly, consumers seek smaller, lighter electronics while also wanting to reduce their energy footprint. In the laptop power adapter market, this has challenged engineers to find new ways to pack more power in smaller spaces while minimizing power loss to deliver more efficient adapters – and many are looking to gallium nitride (GaN) semiconductors to help them achieve those goals. In this session you will learn how to use TI’s integrated GaN technology to reduce the size of your consumer power adapters by 50% (down to 49 cm3) and improve their efficiency by up to 94%, resulting in an easy-to-use, high-efficiency and high power-density solution for AC/DC designs under 75 W. We’ll also touch on the benefits GaN delivers in other applications.
