EPC launches 80V AEC-Q101-qualified GaN FETs for vehicle electronics and advanced autonomy

What happened

EPC has launched two new 80V AEC-Q101-qualified GaN FETs, the EPC2204A (6mΩ, 125A pulsed) and EPC2218A (3.2mΩ, 231A pulsed), targeting automotive 48V-12V conversion, infotainment, and LiDAR systems. This expands the available portfolio of off-the-shelf GaN power devices for automotive designers seeking higher efficiency and smaller form factors compared to silicon MOSFETs. Neutral: This is a standard product launch that expands options but does not indicate a supply/demand shift or pricing pressure for existing components.
