Reported revenue of $5.9 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2024 with roughly an equal split in Product revenue and Government revenue, a 14% increase over the first quarter of fiscal 2023.

Key Points: 
  • Reported revenue of $5.9 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2024 with roughly an equal split in Product revenue and Government revenue, a 14% increase over the first quarter of fiscal 2023.
  • With traction in design-ins and opportunities nearing production, the Company expects to resume sequential product revenue growth in the second quarter of fiscal 2024.
  • Operating expenses on a GAAP basis were $8.9 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2024, compared to $8.5 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 and $6.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2023.
  • Operating expenses on a non-GAAP basis were $6.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2024, a reduction from $7.5 million from the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, and an increase from $5.4 million from the first quarter of fiscal 2023.

The achievement is the first of its kind on record, marking an important milestone for the industry as a whole.

Key Points: 
  • The achievement is the first of its kind on record, marking an important milestone for the industry as a whole.
  • This makes GaN a highly attractive power conversion technology for servo systems, as it allows for higher efficiency and reduced size compared to incumbent solutions.
  • To do that, GaN must pass stringent robustness tests—of which, short-circuit survivability is the most challenging.
  • “Standard GaN devices can withstand short-circuit for only a few hundredths of nanoseconds, which is too short for fault detection and safe shut-down.

The 650V SiC MOSFETs are ideal switching solutions for industrial applications such as solar inverters, motor drives, industrial power supplies, and new energy storage systems, while the AEC-Q101 qualified 750V SiC MOSFET line is targeted for the high-reliability needs in electric vehicle (EV) systems such as the on-board charger (OBC) and the main traction inverter.

Key Points: 
  • The 650V SiC MOSFETs are ideal switching solutions for industrial applications such as solar inverters, motor drives, industrial power supplies, and new energy storage systems, while the AEC-Q101 qualified 750V SiC MOSFET line is targeted for the high-reliability needs in electric vehicle (EV) systems such as the on-board charger (OBC) and the main traction inverter.
  • Highlighting the advantages of these new SiC MOSFETs is the breakthrough performance increase in short circuit withstand time (SCWT) for planar SiC MOSFETs.
  • We are very excited to follow up on our successful 1200V SiC MOSFETs with these automotive-grade 650V and 750V products.
  • The initial 750V automotive series SiC MOSFET products (AOM015V75X2Q, AOM060V75X2Q), and industrial 650V series (AOM015V65X2, AOM060V65X2) will be available for orders in Q4/2022.
