Cambridge GaN Devices Raises $19 Million in Series B Funding

  • Cambridge GaN Devices, a UK-based semiconductor company, has raised $19 million in Series B funding led by Parkwalk Advisors and BGF, with participation from IQ Capital, CIC, Foresight Williams Technology and Martlet Capital

  • The company will use the funds to begin mass production of its range of GaN transistors for power applications

  • Founded in 2016, Cambridge GaN Devices is a spin-out from the University of Cambridge and designs, develops and commercializes GaN transistors and ICs that enable a change in energy efficiency and compactness suitable for high-volume production.

      • ProblemTechnology

      "Making electronics smaller and more energy-efficient is a challenge for the industry because of the limitations of existing silicon-based transistors."

      Solution

      "Cambridge GaN Devices has developed transistors based on gallium nitride (GaN) which can deliver much higher power, reduce energy consumption, and be much smaller than traditional silicon-based transistors."
