Efficient Power Conversion

EPC was founded in November 2007 by three engineers, with a combined 60 years of experience in advanced power management technology. EPC’s CEO Alex Lidow was the co-inventor of the silicon power MOSFET in the 1970s; and, in addition to holding positions in R&D and manufacturing, was the CEO of International Rectifier for 12 years. Over time it became clear to the founders of EPC that silicon had reached its performance limits, failing to propel innovation forward at the rate to which we had become accustomed. EPC was founded with the foresight that GaN would be the inevitable successor to silicon in the advancement of power because of its incomparable speed, efficiency, and low cost. In fact, GaN has superior crystal properties that enable a performance advantage over silicon by as much as 1000:1. EPC products have over 30 billion device operation hours. Reliability testing has demonstrated that the technology is now ready for general commercial use. Mission: The mission of Efficient Power Conversion (EPC) is to change the way we live. EPC is the leading provider of gallium nitride (GaN)-based power management technology and is doing more than just improving efficiency of electrical power. Our customers are our partners and together we are enabling new, life-changing applications that didn’t exist five years ago. From wireless power and autonomous vehicles to high-speed mobile communications to revolutionizing the data center.
