Development of GaN devices for power electronics

Fraunhofer ISIT develops innovative power devices based on gallium nitride (GaN).GaN offers a number of advantages over silicon for the production of power devices. GaN power switches are central elements for power electronic modules, e.g. power converters in electrically powered vehicles or in photovoltaic and wind energy systems, and they help to make these systems significantly more powerful and durable.

Lithium accumulator development

In addition to batteries for special customer-specific applications, Fraunhofer ISIT presents a modular battery system consisting of an extremely robust high-performance battery ("Li-Booster") and fast-response, high-performance battery electronics. Such systems are used, for example, in electric vehicles to provide additional power reserves for short-term power-hungry driving phases or to stabilize the grid in power grids.

MEMS speakers for mobile communication devices and in-ear headphones

Fraunhofer ISIT has developed a new generation of miniaturized loudspeakers manufactured using silicon technology. In contrast to conventional electrodynamic micro loudspeakers, the new chip loudspeakers are based on powerful piezo-electric MEMS drives and are characterized by acoustically high quality, small size, favorable manufacturing costs and low energy consumption.
