The future of power semiconductors

Power semiconductors are taking major change in direction and moving towards distinct bifurcated approaches. The first approach is towards innovations that improve the silicon and process technologies to overcome the limitations of the current technology and the other approach is towards device integration. The latter approach highlights the demand in the market to have more functionality in the same package leading to multi-die designs. Where justified by the market application, these specific products that pack various amounts of functionality and complexity into one component providing highly efficient and specialized performance to accomplish complex functions at the right price for the consumers on time
