About
Our customers face the critical challenge of powering a more sustainable and efficient future, which is why we at Wolfspeed are dedicated to leading the worldwide adoption of Silicon Carbide technologies. As the pioneers of this transformative material, we understand that traditional silicon semiconductors can no longer meet the escalating power demands of modern applications. Therefore, we have spent over 35 years perfecting Silicon Carbide and Gallium Nitride (GaN) solutions that deliver unparalleled efficiency and performance. Our mission is to empower our customers to build systems that consume less energy while providing greater range and capability, particularly in high-growth sectors like electric vehicles, renewable energy, and 5G telecommunications. We believe that the transition from silicon to Silicon Carbide is not just a technological upgrade but a necessary evolution for the planet. By providing the industry's most advanced wide-bandgap semiconductors, we enable our partners to create smaller, lighter, and more powerful electronic systems. From our state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities in North Carolina and New York, we deliver the scale and reliability our customers need to bring their disruptive innovations to market. Whether it is extending the range of an electric car or improving the efficiency of a solar inverter, Wolfspeed is committed to powering a better world for everyone through relentless innovation and a customer-first approach to semiconductor manufacturing.
