Navitas and Wise Integration Team on GaN and SiC Power for AI Computing

Navitas Semiconductor will combine its next-generation gallium-nitride and silicon-carbide power semiconductors with Wise Integration SAS's digital-control expertise in wide-bandgap power converters. The two companies have announced a collaboration aimed at power solutions for AI data centers, AI PCs, high-end workstations, gaming desktops, and industrial systems.

The partnership addresses a concrete commercial problem. AI data centers and performance computing applications are driving significant growth in energy demand, according to the companies, and that growth is creating new requirements for efficiency, power density, and system performance.

What will the collaboration actually build?

The work centers on two tracks:

• AI data center power-supply units (PSUs), where the partners intend to apply Navitas GaN and SiC devices together with Wise Integration's digital control for wide-bandgap-based converters.
• Additional power-conversion topologies for high-voltage, high-power, and high-efficiency applications spanning the delivery path from grid to chip.

In AI data center PSUs and energy infrastructure, the companies said, these requirements also make it necessary to deploy new power-conversion architectures. Higher efficiency and higher power density are the stated deliverables, not incremental refinements of existing silicon designs.

The pairing gives each side a capability the other lacks. Navitas, a power-semiconductor supplier, brings the wide-bandgap devices themselves — GaN and SiC transistors suited to fast switching at high voltage. Wise Integration, a French company, brings the digital control layer that governs wide-bandgap converters and determines how much of the devices' theoretical efficiency reaches the finished power supply.

Why does the deal target AI compute specifically?

Vipin Bothra, vice president of global solution marketing at Navitas, framed the demand side directly.

"AI data centers and performance computing applications are creating unprecedented need for solutions that deliver higher efficiency and better power density," Bothra said. "By combining Navitas' next-generation GaN and SiC power technologies with Wise Integration's digital-control expertise, we can deliver solutions that help customers address these rapidly evolving system requirements."

The customer set named in the announcement is broad. It spans consumer-adjacent products — AI PCs, high-end workstations, and desktop computers for gamers — and industrial systems alongside the data center PSU work that forms the collaboration's stated core. That breadth signals the partners expect wide-bandgap power conversion with advanced digital control to become a common requirement across computing classes, not a niche reserved for hyperscale facilities.

The grid-to-chip scope is the other notable element of the announcement. By exploring additional power-conversion topologies across the entire delivery chain, the companies position the collaboration to address energy infrastructure beyond the PSU itself, where high-voltage and high-power conversion stages sit upstream of the rack.

No capacity figures, revenue targets, product timelines, or process details were disclosed in the announcement. The collaboration is a technology partnership at the roadmap stage, with commercial outcomes to be defined by the solutions the partners deliver for AI data center PSUs and next-generation computing platforms.
