World's largest 8-inch GaN-on-Si device maker partners with German power electronics Innovation Hub
19th July 2022 – Innoscience Technology, a company founded to create a global energy ecosystem based on high-performance, low-cost gallium-nitride-on-silicon (GaN-on-Si) power solutions, has signed a distribution agreement with Finepower, the engineering and distribution company focused on power electronic applications with operations in Germany and China.

The agreement covers Europe, China and worldwide for specified customers. Dr Denis Marcon, General Manager, Innoscience Europe comments: “Finepower brands itself as the ‘Innovation Hub’ for power semiconductors and offers both engineering and distribution services. Therefore we are sure that they will be an excellent partner for Innoscience, both in educating the market about the leading performance and reliability offered by our InnoGaN solutions and in ensuring a secure supply chain for customers.”

Adds Reiko Winkler, General Manager of Finepower: “Finepower is already very experienced in working on customers’ applications using GaN. And we are excited to extend our portfolio with High Voltage GaN devices by adding Innoscience – the world’s largest 8-inch GaN-on-Si device manufacturer – to our line-up. With a capacity of 10,000 8-inch wafers per month (WPM), which will grow to 70,000 WPM by 2025, Innoscience is ensuring that the world can begin designing with GaN now, with no delay. That is hugely empowering for all markets.”
