While military applications continue to drive the GaN device market, commercial applications are finally emerging and going into volume production. Both wireless infrastructure and CATV networks are becoming increasingly data-centric with an emphasis on technologies that can offer wider bandwidths and higher linearity coupled with high voltage operation thus opening the door for increased of GaN. As GaN technologies mature, similar performance requirements will come from markets that typically operate at higher frequencies with opportunities emerging in VSAT/satellite and point-to-point radio markets. GaN will also see increasing use in the military sector with radar and communications applications adding to early implementation in electronic warfare systems.
