Navitas Semiconductor (NASDAQ:NVTS) is a fabless semiconductor company specializing in the design and development of gallium nitride (GaN) power integrated circuits (ICs). Founded in 2014 and headquartered in El Segundo, California, the company aims to replace traditional silicon-based power devices with more efficient, higher-performance GaN technology. Navitas leverages proprietary GaNFast power ICs to deliver faster charging, reduced energy losses, and smaller form factors for a wide range of applications.
The company’s product portfolio centers on its GaNFast family of power ICs, which integrate GaN transistors and driver functions into a single package. These devices are offered in various voltage ratings to address end markets such as mobile device chargers, laptops, power adapters, data centers, e-mobility systems, solar inverters, and LED lighting. By incorporating GaN technology, Navitas’ ICs enable manufacturers to design lighter, more compact power supplies while maintaining or improving energy-efficiency standards.
Navitas operates on a fabless model, collaborating with leading foundries to manufacture its GaNFast products at scale. With design centers and offices spread across North America, Europe, and Asia, the company maintains close relationships with tier-one OEMs, contract manufacturers, and distribution partners. Navitas’ global footprint supports rapid prototype development, qualification processes, and customer support for engineers integrating GaN solutions into next-generation power systems.
Under the leadership of President and CEO Gene Sheridan, Navitas has grown from a university spin-out to a publicly traded company listed on the NASDAQ. The executive team brings together decades of experience in semiconductor design, power electronics, and global operations. Committed to ongoing research and development, Navitas continues to expand its GaN portfolio and drive the broader industry shift toward higher-efficiency, sustainable power conversion technologies.
