Ideal Semiconductor Devices

Ideal Semiconductor Devices is a fabless semiconductor company founded in 2017 by David Jauregui and Michael D. Burns, with headquarters in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. The company specializes in the design and development of next-generation power semiconductor devices.

Ideal Semiconductor has developed a new, patented technology that enhances the performance of silicon-based power devices, achieving breakthrough levels of power efficiency. This technology allows for the creation of power conversion and control solutions that are more efficient and cost-effective than traditional silicon devices, and competitive with wide bandgap materials like Gallium Nitride (GaN) and Silicon Carbide (SiC) without the associated manufacturing complexities and costs. The company's main products are power MOSFETs that offer significantly lower conduction and switching losses, which are critical for applications in power supplies, electric vehicles, renewable energy, and industrial markets.

The business model is focused on licensing its technology to and partnering with large-scale semiconductor manufacturers, enabling them to integrate Ideal's technology into their production lines. This approach allows for rapid scaling and market penetration. The company generates revenue through licensing fees and royalties on the products sold by its partners.
