Digitimes Research: SiC, Gan power semiconductor markets to grow fast through 2025

While silicon remains the mainstream power semiconductor material, silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN) are seen more suitable for power semiconductor devices needed by electric cars and mobile devices, as they can perform much better than Si in reducing on-state resistance and miniaturizing the size of power devices, thus helping the devices achieve fast charging, power consumption and high energy conversion functions. It is expected that the SiC and Gan power semiconductor markets will experience a higher growth than the Si semiconductor market by 2025, Digitimes Research believes.
