Cyient launches India’s first GaN power IC family

News
650V DPAK GaN devices for edge AI computing and e-mobility are based on Navitas GaN technology

Indian company Cyient Semiconductors has announced the launch of seven new GaN power devices for the Indian market, developed using Navitas Semiconductor’s GaN technology.

The DPAK devices combine drive, control, and protection functions, with integrated EMI management and current sensing.

This is Cyient's first commercial GaN product family and hailed as a major milestone in advancing India’s domestic power semiconductor ecosystem. The new portfolio is designed to address the rapidly growing demand for high-efficiency, high-power-density solutions across AI data centres, telecommunications, consumer fast charging, industrial power systems, and e-mobility platforms.

Building on the collaboration with Navitas announced in December 2025, the partnership enables customers in India to access commercially available GaN power solutions with enhanced local support, supply assurance, and alignment with emerging domestic sourcing initiatives.

Under the agreement, Cyient Semiconductors will license Navitas’s GaN technology for use in India, accelerating the adoption of high-performance GaN solutions across a broad range of markets. In addition, Cyient Semiconductors will serve as a second source for select Navitas GaN devices already in mass production and strengthening supply chain resilience.

Over time, the licensing agreement with Navitas Semiconductor is expected to enable the domestic manufacturing of GaN power devices in India.

Suman Narayan, CEO, Cyient Semiconductors, said: “With this launch, Cyient Semiconductors is introducing its first family of GaN power ICs, marking our entry into high-performance power semiconductors with a strong roadmap for expansion. Built on Navitas’ proven GaN platform, these highly integrated devices are designed to accelerate adoption and support next- generation power applications. This represents the foundation of a broader GaN portfolio that will address the growing power and efficiency demands of AI infrastructure, industrial systems, consumer power, and e-mobility applications”

Chris Allexandre, president and CEO of Navitas Semiconductor, said,:“India is a key market in Navitas’s high growth, high power strategy with Navitas 2.0. This launch furthers our vision of a robust local supply chain and manufacturing in India for the governments “Make in India” initiatives. The partnership with Cyient delivers a strong local support infrastructure for our customers as we pivot our India strategy to focus on GaN based product enablement and customer success”

Cyient Semiconductors expect to begin sampling the first set of GaN power products by June 2026.
