VisIC Technologies
VisIC Technologies is an Israeli private VC-backed semiconductor startup developing gallium nitride (GaN) power transistors for electric vehicles, with dual-use potential in defense radar and electronic warfare power systems.
Visit WebsiteCompany Overview
VisIC Technologies develops high-power gallium nitride (GaN) transistors using its proprietary D3GaN technology platform. The company focuses on automotive-grade GaN power devices for electric vehicle traction inverters, on-board chargers, and DC-DC converters, delivering industry-leading efficiency exceeding 99.5% in EV drivetrain applications.
The company collaborates with leading automotive OEMs and Tier-1 suppliers including NXP and AVL for next-generation BEV traction inverter development. VisIC's GaN modules enable 50% lower losses, smaller system sizes, and reduced cooling requirements compared to silicon-based alternatives.
Dual-use relevance is high: the same GaN power transistor technology that improves EV efficiency is critical for defense applications including high-power radar transmitters, electronic warfare systems, military communications amplifiers, and directed energy weapons power stages where GaN's superior power density, efficiency, and thermal performance are essential.
