Founded by Salem Abid , Minysa develops GaN gate-driver integrated circuits that help manufacturers control GaN power devices more safely, efficiently, and compactly.
- The technology aims to reduce integration complexity while enabling smaller, cooler, and more reliable power systems for applications including satellite power conversion, motor drives, actuators, robotics, and industrial electronics.
GaN-based power devices offer significant advantages over traditional silicon technologies, including higher power density, improved energy efficiency, and reduced heat generation.
- The company's technology aims to address these barriers and support the deployment of GaN devices in high-reliability environments.
The company is initially targeting the European space power electronics market, where efficiency, reliability, and technological sovereignty are increasingly important.
- The funding will support the development of Minysa's first GaN gate-driver ASICs for space and other high-reliability applications.
