Markets

SiC-based power electronic devices are smaller, lighter and faster; they run at higher temperatures, save significant energy, and operate more efficiently than silicon-based devices. Fueled by Pallidus’ unique cost-quality paradigm, its next-generation wafers and materials leverage rapidly expanding power electronics markets in transportation, green energy/smart grid, and industrial/telecom.

Transportation

  • 5-10% less energy consumed, increased range and faster charging.

  • 500kg weight savings $10s of millions in savings per aircraft life.

  • 25% energy savings, 30% lower weight, improved safety.

Green Energy / Smart Grid

  • 50% lower conversion losses, 3-5% more system efficiency. One less windmill in a farm of 20.

  • 50% lower losses, makes solar more competitive with fossil fuel.

  • Reduces losses during DC to AC electricity conversion by 90%.

Industrial / Telecom

  • 5% direct power savings, 25% smaller footprint and cooling load.

  • Decreases the cost per bit by 10x in 5G networks.

  • Handles 10 times Higher voltages and operates above 300C reducing weight and size.
