Cyient Semiconductors has introduced seven new gallium nitride (GaN) power integrated circuits for the Indian market, developed using licensed technology from Navitas Semiconductor. This marks its first commercial GaN product lineup and a key milestone in strengthening India’s domestic power semiconductor ecosystem.
The new 650 V GaN devices are designed for high-performance applications including AI data centers, telecom infrastructure, industrial power systems, fast-charging adapters, and electric mobility platforms. The company highlights that these chips offer higher power density, better thermal performance, and lower switching losses compared to conventional silicon-based alternatives.
This launch follows a strategic partnership announced in December 2025, under which Cyient Semiconductors licenses GaN technology from Navitas for use in India. The arrangement also enables Cyient to act as a secondary supplier for selected Navitas GaN products already in mass production, supporting supply chain diversification and local sourcing efforts.
GaN technology is increasingly favored in efficient power conversion systems because of its fast switching capability and reduced energy losses, helping engineers build smaller, cooler, and more efficient devices.
Cyient’s first portfolio includes seven highly integrated devices in standard DPAK packages, combining drive, protection, control, sensing, and EMI management functions in a single solution to simplify design and speed up product development.
Looking ahead, the company plans to expand its GaN offerings with support from local OSAT partners, with the long-term goal of enabling domestic manufacturing of GaN devices in India as the ecosystem develops. Initial samples are expected to be available from June 2026, along with technical documentation and support.
