Gallium Nitride (GaN) transistors have emerged as pivotal components in personal electronics, enabling lighter, smaller, and faster-charging devices. Yet, their full potential remains untapped. GaN technology's role in the digitalization revolution is still underestimated. As we transition into the post-silicon era, GaN's superior efficiency and high-frequency operation open avenues for breakthroughs in AI computing and beyond. Strategic investment in GaN applications is essential to capitalize on its opportunities for economic growth and technological advancement.
As Director of the GaN and RF Business Unit at STMicroelectronics, Roberto is driving ST’s PowerGaN and RF GaN product roadmaps, the related marketing strategies, product line management and business development. Having held similar roles for Automotive Smart Power solutions for lighting and power distribution applications, Roberto is keenly aware of industry needs and how to help engineers achieve the best performance for their applications.
