Navitas & BrightLoop Partners to Provide Next-Generation Hydrogen Fuel-Cell Charging
TORRANCE, Calif., June 03, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Navitas Semiconductor (NASDAQ:NVTS), the industry leader in next-generation GaNFast™ gallium nitride (GaN) and GeneSiC™ silicon carbide (SiC) power semiconductors, today announced its partnership with BrightLoop supporting their latest series of hydrogen fuel-cell chargers with automotive qualified Gen 3 ‘Fast' SiC (G3F) MOSFETs for heavy-duty agricultural transportation equipment.
BrightLoop offers leading-edge, top-performance solutions with power conversion efficiencies over 98% and extreme power densities up to 35 kW/kg and 60 kW/L. Their high-voltage, high-power multiverters paired to BrightLoop's Power Flow Processor technology are designed to deliver exceptional performance in both AC and DC applications, such as energy management scenarios for fuel cells and heavy-duty applications, as well as HV network adaptation.
Navitas' auto-qualified G3F SiC MOSFETs are incorporated into BrightLoop's 250 kW HV-DC/DC converter, with an output of 950VDC at 480A, and can be paralleled to achieve megawatt power capability.
Enabled by 20 years of SiC innovation leadership, GeneSiC proprietary ‘trench-assisted planar' technology provides world-leading performance over temperature, delivering high-speed, cool-running operation for high-power, high-reliability applications. G3F SiC MOSFETs deliver high-efficiency with high-speed performance, enabling up to 25°C lower case temperature, and up to 3x longer life than SiC products from other vendors.
Trench-assisted planar technology enables an extremely low RDS(ON) increase versus temperature, which results in the lowest power losses across the complete operating range and offers up to 20% lower RDS(ON) under real-life operation at high temperatures compared to competition. All GeneSiC MOSFETs have the highest-published 100%-tested avalanche capability, 30% longer short-circuit withstand time, and tight threshold voltage distributions for easy paralleling.
"We are proud to partner with BrightLoop, the established leaders in leading-edge high-power density and efficiency converters," said Gene Sheridan, CEO and co-founder of Navitas. "Both companies provide the technology and system leadership to enable the roadmap for next generation, high-power density, high-reliability converter solutions."
"Navitas offers leading-edge SiC technology where efficiency, ruggedness, and reliability are paramount. Our high power-density, smart, efficient, and scalable multiverters lead the industry by enhancing the quantity and quality of energy delivered to our customers," said Florent Liffran, CEO and founder of BrightLoop.
