GaN charging technology

Charging technologies have evolved significantly over the last decades in order to meet the increasing demands of powering electronic devices in our daily lives.

Nowadays, there are several types of charging designed to fulfil their function and our needs, such as GaN technology.

What is GaN?

This technology has represented a revolutionary innovation in the field of electronics and has led to significant improvements in wall chargers.

Its distinctive feature as a semiconductor is its ability to significantly reduce heat generation during the use of chargers. In other words, it heats up much less than other conventional chargers.

Before, the internal components of chargers were arranged with a wide space between them to avoid overheating. Thanks to this reduction in heat generation, the components of GaN-based chargers can be grouped together in a much smaller space.

This results in a series of chargers with a much smaller size, without compromising their high load capacity and safety standards.

A substitute to silicon

For many years, silicon has been the main material used in the manufacture of chargers and transmitters and has been of great use due to its conductive capability.

However, times change, and silicon has its limits. This is why other alternatives to this material, such as GaN, have been developed.

This technology is made from gallium nitride. A material that allows considerably higher voltages to be conducted and transfers electrical energy at much higher speeds than silicon.

It also provides a significant improvement in energy efficiency and reduces heat generation, making GaN-based chargers a remarkable innovation over conventional chargers and the industry standard of the future.

5 reasons to choose a GaN charger

These types of chargers offer several significant advantages that will make charging your devices much more efficient and effective:

- Fast charge: GaN chargers offer a much faster charging speed than conventional chargers. Since our GaN chargers also feature charging technologies such as Power Delivery and PPS, you can charge your devices at full speed and have them ready in no time.

- Compact size: Gallium nitride enables the chargers to be far more compact than silicon chargers with a higher charging power. This makes them ideal to take with you on the road and save space on your bedside table or desk.

- Less heat generation: Thanks to their efficiency, GaN chargers generate less heat than conventional chargers, increasing the safety and durability of all your devices.

- Eco-friendly: GaN technology is very efficient at energy conversion. This results in lower electricity consumption and reduced energy waste, making them the perfect choice for saving on electricity bills and being environmentally friendly.

- Full compatibility: GaN chargers are compatible with the vast majority of devices. They incorporate standard USB ports, such as USB-A or USB-C, the current compatibility standard in the market. You simply need to make sure you use a quality cable to benefit from the benefits of GaN chargers and ensure a proper connection and safe, efficient charging.
