The Ferdinand Braun Institute is one of several organizations in Europe involved in developing high-power GaN devices for military, commercial, and space applications. According to Roland Shaw, president of Accel-RF, "We have already been contacted by other member companies, and expect a high level of interest to 'standardize' on the Accel-RF High Power System for Reliability Testing." European GaN developers are trying to learn from lessons of United States companies on lower-power GaN devices and quickly build high-power GaN device test capabilities. Accel-RF's test systems can stress multiple devices under varying DC, thermal, and RF conditions at frequencies to 18 GHz and bias levels to 100 V and 4 A.
