Now MIT spinout Cambridge Electronics Inc. CEI) has announced a line of Gan transistors and power electronic circuits that promise to cut energy usage in data centers, electric cars,

Power electronics is a ubiquitous technology used to convert electricity to higher or lower voltages and different currents such as in a laptop power adapter

Many of these power-electronics systems rely on silicon transistors that switch on and off to regulate voltage but, due to speed and resistance constraints, waste energy as heat.

and orders-of-magnitude faster switching frequency meaning power-electronics systems with these components can be made much smaller.

CEI is using its transistors to enable power electronics that will make data centers less energy-intensive

will be replacing the silicon-based power electronics in electric cars. These are in the chargers that charge the battery,

Gan-based power electronics, on the other hand, could boost power output for electric cars while making them more energy-efficient and lighter and,

Gan power electronics will be key to make them mainstream, Palacios says. Innovative ideas In launching CEI, the MIT founders turned to the Institute entrepreneurial programs,
