This paper will comprise a short overview of the current landscape of the industrial motor drive application space in the 1 kW to 2 kW output power range and will frame the market opportunity for GaN based systems. The overview will lead into an identification of key features that are required before GaN based systems can expect widespread adoption in the motor drive world. These key features will be shown to have been integrated into a new HB GaN Power IC platform that enables higher motor drive system efficiency, increased robustness to fault conditions, and a reduced overall system cost as compared to legacy Si and discrete GaN based solutions.
