Power Product of the Year
Company Name: Efficient Power Conversion (EPC)
Product Name: EPC33110
Supporting Statement:
EPC33110 is an innovative game-changer in power electronics that revolutionizes the design of compact, high-performance motor drives. EPC has combined six eGaN® FETs, three gate drivers, level shifters, bootstrap circuitry and protection functions into a single monolithic device, greatly reducing the complexity, size and power loss of traditional three-phase inverter designs.
The EPC33110’s ability to deliver exceptional performance in an ultra-compact 6.5 mm × 6 mm package sets it apart. The device supports input voltages up to 100 V, continuous currents up to 20 A and switching frequencies as high as 3 MHz, offering significantly higher power density and efficiency versus conventional silicon-based solutions. The monolithic GaN architecture reduces parasitic inductance, switching loss and increases overall system reliability, providing engineers with faster dynamic response and better motor control.
The device comes at a critical juncture for humanoid robotics, drones, industrial automation and autonomous systems, where every gram, cubic millimeter and watt counts. The EPC33110 enables smaller, lighter, more efficient motor drives and helps designers meet ever-increasing performance requirements while reducing system cost and development time.
But beyond the technical achievements, the EPC33110 is a big step forward on the path to commercialization of GaN technology. It is not a direct replacement for silicon MOSFETs, rather it is a complete power-stage solution that simplifies design, accelerates innovation and allows for new classes of high-performance motion control systems.
The EPC33110 is the type of innovation that drives the power electronics industry forward with industry-leading integration, exceptional efficiency, small form factor and direct relevance to fast-growing markets. This is a revolutionary technology, not just an incremental improvement, setting a new standard for integrated motor-drive solutions and very worthy of a 2026 industry award.
