Navitas New Distribution Deal with Richardson Electronics Expands Americas Footprint for Next-Gen SiC Semiconductors

Partnership for advanced GeneSiC silicon carbide (SiC) targets renewable energy, industrial, medical, transportation, and energy storage.

Navitas Semiconductor (Nasdaq: NVTS), the only pure-play, next-generation power semiconductor company and industry leader in gallium nitride (GaN) power ICs and silicon carbide (SiC) technology, has announced a distribution agreement with Richardson Electronics, Ltd. (Nasdaq: RELL) covering next-generation silicon carbide (SiC) power semiconductors for the Americas.

Richardson Electronics will focus on Navitas’ world-leading GeneSiC™ power MOSFETs and MPS™ diodes that are rated from 650 V – 6.5 kV. Patented trench-assisted planar-gate technology delivers the lowest RDS(ON) at high temperature and the lowest energy losses at high speeds.

Devices in the broad GeneSiC portfolio are ideal for a number of applications including but not limited to renewable energy and storage, motor drives, induction heating and welding, battery charging, automotive, and high voltage DC-DC conversion.
