Power Integrations' PowiGaN-based primary-side power switches

Image of Power Integrations' PowiGaN™ Technology SwitchesPowiGaN is Power Integrations’ internally developed gallium nitride (GaN) technology. PowiGaN switches replace the traditional silicon transistors on the primary side of PI’s highly integrated offline flyback switcher ICs, reducing switching losses and enabling chargers, adapters, and open frame power supplies that are more efficient, smaller, and lighter than silicon alternatives.
