Company profile
QPT
Cambridge power-electronics developer of GaN motor-drive modules, with R&D laboratories in Linlithgow.
Company overview
QPT develops power-electronics modules that use gallium nitride transistors for high-frequency electric motor drives. Its principal published product is qIPM, an intelligent power module combining GaN switching devices with drive, filtering, packaging and thermal-management technology. The company describes qDrive as part of its switching approach and qFilter as the integrated filtering technology used to produce a sine-wave motor output. Target applications include industrial motor drives, heating and ventilation systems, and electric vehicles. Its contact page identifies a commercial headquarters at the Bradfield Centre on Cambridge Science Park and R&D laboratories in Linlithgow. Published product material includes development targets as well as product descriptions; these should not be interpreted as independently verified performance or evidence that every planned demonstrator has shipped.
