GaN POWER 2021: EPITAXY, DEVICES, APPLICATIONS ANDTECHNOLOGY TRENDSMarket & Technology Report - May 2021The power GaN market doubled in 2020, highlighting the impressive growth of smartphone fastchargers and leading the way for telecom and automotive markets.WHAT’S NEW Covid-19 impact analysis Update of market size by devicetype: discrete HEMT, system-onchip, and system-in-package Update of market size for bare diemarket, by device type Update of voltage analyses of GaNpower devices: 650V and less than200V Update for the GaN-on-sapphireand GaN-on-Si epiwafer markets Update of player and market status,with a focus in China Discussion of recent investments,M&A events, the competitiveadvantages of key players, marketopportunities, and market dynamicKEY FEATURES Yole Développement’s deepunderstanding of GaN penetrationin different applications includingpower supply (consumer, telecom& datacom, industrial ), xEV, UPS,lidar, and wireless power Market projection for discrete andGaN IC devices in all applicativemarkets State-of-the-art GaN-based powerdevices, including product charts foreach along with device descriptions Overview of the GaN powerindustrial landscape, from epitaxyand device design to deviceprocessing, with a focus on China Discussion of GaN power marketdynamics GaN power device voltage analysis State-of-the-art developmentsfor power GaN packaging andintegration GaN reliability overview Market projection for GaN epitaxythrough 2026 by value and volume,including bare-die market withdiscrete/SiP/SoC split, device marketsplit by application, and devicemarket with discrete/SiP/SoC splitTHE POWER GaN MARKET IS TAKING OFF THANKS TO THE DEVICEMARKET DOUBLING IN 2020Following Oppo’s adoption of GaN in its 65Winbox fast chargers for its Reno Ace flagship modelin late 2019, several phone OEMs and accessorycharger providers released GaN-solution designwins for their fast chargers in 2020. Accordingto Yole Développement (Yole), the power GaNmarket doubled in 2020 compared to 2019 andis poised to surpass the 1B mark in 2026. Asfurther confirmation of this impressive GaNmarket growth, Yole forecasts that the marketsfor telecom & datacom and automotive willcontribute in the mid- to long-term to overallgrowth, benefiting from GaN’s ascension in fastchargers.In the consumer market, GaN enjoyed a successfulyear in 2020 thanks to several companies such asXiaomi, Lenovo, Samsung, Realme, Dell and LG,as well as other Chinese aftermarket companiesthat adopted GaN technology. Yole expects theGaN consumer power supply market to be themain driver, as this market is forecast to growfrom 29M in 2020 to around 672M in 2026with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of69%.In the telecom & datacom market, which requiresmore efficient, smaller power supply amidst tighterregulations for energy consumption, datacenter &telecom operators are already interested in GaNdevices. Following the first small-volume adoptionof GaN-based power supplies by Eltek, Delta,and BelPower in recent years, we expect a largerpenetration of GaN – with a market valued at 9.1M in 2020 and a CAGR2020-2026 of 71%, reachingmore than 223M in 2026.The automotive & mobility market is also payinglots of attention to GaN, following big incentivesfor the electrification of cars and the interest inincreasing driving range through system efficiencyoptimization. Players such as EPC, Transphorm,GaN Systems, and Texas Instruments are AECqualified. The major IDM STMicroelectronics,through partnership and acquisition, is alsotargeting GaN for EVs. Starting from 2022, GaNis expected to penetrate in small volumes, mainlyrelated to sampling by OEMs and Tier-1s. Yoleexpects the automotive & mobility market toreach more than 155M in 2026.This GaN report from Yole Développementanswers numerous questions facing the industry.For example, how will the handset fast-chargingmarket evolve, and what impact does Yole expectfor the overall GaN market?2020-2026 power GaN market forecast split by application2026 1.1BConsumerIndustrialTelecom & datacomAutomotive & mobilityDefense & aerospaceEnergyOthers 3.4M 1.4M2020 46M 672MCAGR 69% 1.8MCAGR4% 2.2M 0.5MCAGR 155M28% 2.2M 9.1M(Yole Développement, May 2021)185%CAGR48% 28.7M 0.3MCAGR 36MCAGR2020-2026: 70% 223MCAGR 71% 15.7MCAGR31%

GaN POWER 2021: EPITAXY, DEVICES, APPLICATIONS AND TECHNOLOGY TRENDSRef. YINTR21190DRIVEN BY FAST CHARGER APPLICATIONS, POWER GaN WILL GROW ROBUSTLY INTHE NEXT FIVE YEARSIn 2020 the power GaN market doubled thanksto an impressive penetration of GaN devicesin fast charger applications. The adoption ofGaN in the smartphone market is fuelled bysystem compactness, high efficiency, and adaptermultifunctionalities. Fast charging is likely to bethe killer application for the GaN power devicemarket. So far at least 10 smartphones OEMsRoadmap for GaN power devicesEVs/HEVsGaN devicerevenueInvertersIndustrialmarket 1,000MOBCsDC/DC conversion 500M 250MDatacentersFast chargersfor smartphonesLow-volume highend PV invertersFirstdevice201020152020*Non exhaustive list of companies(Yole Développement, May 2021)While GaN continues its ascension in the massconsumer market, the markets for telecom &datacom and automotive & mobility will benefitfrom the “economy of scale effect” and priceerosion. Indeed, in these markets where reliabilityand cost are paramount, Yole expects that GaNpenetration will see increasing volumes startingfrom 2023 - 2024.In the long term, in cases where GaN has provenits reliability and high-current capabilities at alower price, it can penetrate the more challengingEV/HEV inverter market and the conservativeindustrial market, which could create remarkablehigh-volume opportunities for GaN. In fact,Nexperia and VisIC are working on GaN solutionsfor xEV inverters to compete with SiC and Si.EVs/HEVs 750Mhave launched more than 18 phones with an inboxGaN charger. This growth will continue in theaftermarket as well, with companies like Apple,Xiaomi, and Samsung opting for an out-of-the-boxcharger solution. How will these OEMs’ decisionsaffect the GaN market? What are the possiblemarket scenarios for GaN adoption?20252030This report details Yole’s understanding ofGaN device implementation in different marketsegments as well as our impressions of themarket’s current dynamics and future evolution.MARKET OPPORTUNITIES AND TECHNOLOGY CHOICESTo enter and become established in the fast-growingpower GaN market, companies have developeddifferent strategies and technologies. With strongmarket entry for foundries, the building-up ofsupply capacity can be ensured.

Two good examples are Power Integrationsand Navitas, both of which are partnered withfoundries and who together held more than 52%market share in 2020. Additionally, several morecompanies such as EPC, GaN Systems, and VisIChave a similar business model. Nevertheless, thequestion of how to attain product differentiationbetween companies with the same foundry will becritical in the future.In this report, the choices of technologies forsubstrate, epitaxy, integration, and package areprovided to analyse the strategy of each player inthe value chain and the status of their power GaNbusiness. Also, technology trends are discussedfrom the perspective of manufacturer, systemprovider, and end-user.The booming fast-charger market also pullsinvestments in China. Innoscience is expandingits capacity in a new 8” fab, while many Chinesecompanies have launched Power GaN projectsto fulfil high future demand. We invite you toread our supply chain business model analysis andour forecasts for the wafer, epiwafer, and devicemarkets. Also included is an overview of theChinese GaN ecosystem build-out.
