Wireless Infrastructure
Meeting the continually evolving demands for 4G LTE & 5G wireless infrastructure applications with RFHIC's gallium nitride (GaN) on silicon carbide (SiC) technology solutions
RFHIC announced that it has signed a contract with the POSTECH Accelerator Laboratory to supply high-power solid-state power amplifiers (SSPA) for a multi-purpose synchrotron radiation accelerator project.
The contract is valued at approximately KRW 18.7 billion (USD equivalent) and will run from February 11, 2026 through December 31, 2029.
This project marks an important milestone for RFHIC as the company expands beyond its traditional telecommunications and defense RF semiconductor business into RF energy systems supporting national research infrastructure and advanced scientific facilities.
A synchrotron radiation accelerator is a large-scale research facility that accelerates electrons to near the speed of light to generate extremely bright and precise X-ray beams. These beams allow researchers to analyze the microscopic structure and dynamic behavior of materials with high precision.
Such facilities play a critical role in semiconductor research, advanced materials, biotechnology, energy technologies, and other cutting-edge scientific fields. The fourth-generation synchrotron accelerator involved in this project offers significantly improved brightness and precision, enabling more accurate analysis and real-time observation.
The RF amplification system to be supplied by RFHIC will incorporate high-power SSPAs based on the company’s proprietary Gallium Nitride (GaN) semiconductor technology. The system is designed to deliver high energy efficiency, digital control capability, and reliable long-term operation, which are essential for continuous operation in large-scale research environments.
