About Efficient Power Conversion
Efficient Power Conversion designs and sells gallium nitride (GaN) power transistors and integrated circuits under the eGaN name. GaN is a compound semiconductor that switches faster and wastes less energy as heat than ordinary silicon power devices, which suits power converters, lidar and motor drives. The company does not make processors itself, it supplies the power stage around them. EPC was founded in 2007 by Alex Lidow, a former chief executive of International Rectifier, and is based in El Segundo, California.

What Efficient Power Conversion works on
Custom Silicon
Custom silicon means a company designs its own chips for its own products or data centers instead of buying standard parts. The chip is made by a foundry such as TSMC, but the design belongs to the customer.
