Foreword

With the development of charging technology, more and more new technologies are used in different products. Consumers, as product users, are unaware of the technologies used in different products when choosing products. Or there are many new technologies that seem to be used by different companies and products, so how to understand the features and benefits behind these technologies? This article focuses on Anker's latest GaNPrime technology and lets users become more familiar with GaNPrime and Anker's unique Power IQ 4.0 technology.

What is GaN

Before introducing GaNPrime, we'd like to introduce GaN technology to the users. With Anker's introduction of the first GaN charger in 2018, GaN technology started to catch the market's eye. But what is GaN? Actual GaN is the chemical formula for Gallium nitride. Gallium nitride is an inorganic substance, which is a compound of nitrogen and gallium. It is a direct bandgap semiconductor and has been commonly used in light-emitting diodes since 1990. This compound has a wurtzite-like structure and high hardness. Gallium nitride has a wide energy gap of 3.4 electron volts and can be used in high-power, high-speed optoelectronic components. It is known as the 3rd generation of semiconductor materials. With the technology breakthrough cost-controlled, GaN is also widely used in consumer electronics, etc. In the field, the charger is one of them.

Benefits of GaN

Compared with silicon, gallium nitride has a wider band gap, and the wide band gap also means that gallium nitride can withstand higher voltages than silicon and has better conductivity. In short, the two materials are much more efficient than silicon at the same volume. If GaN replaces all current electronic equipment, it may reduce the power consumption of electronic products by another 10%or 25% The charger of gallium nitride components shows high efficiency, low heat generation, and high power with a small size.

Key Features of  GaNPrime

Using GaN as a tool for technology innovation, Anker isn't content with just bringing it to the charger market, but also continuously pursuing further technological development. So this year, Anker developed the GaN Prime,  and with the launch of the first-released GaNPrime products, consumers will experience Anker's most intelligent multi-port fast charging system！

High Power with Ultra-Compact Design

Constructing using Anker's self-Compact Architecture Design developed mini transformer technology and an innovative stacked design to increase portability and reduce the size by

up to 53%. Make it more convenient for users to travel and business trips. Users no longer need to worry about carrying bulky charging devices that take up storage space when using them outside the home.

Anker has cooperated with 7 top upstream manufacturers in the world to create the world's first product with advanced AHB power architecture. Which reduces energy consumption by 20%, 1 million products, and saves 5.84 million kWh of electricity every year. And for a single product, the electricity saved in one year can charge your Airpods3 about 3300 times.

Besides the above benefits, GaNPrime also includes two key advantages, which are POWER IQ 4.0 and ActiveShield  2.0.

PowerIQ 4.0

Let us first introduce the PowerIQ 4.0, which automatically detects the power requirements of your laptop, tablet, or phone and dynamically distributes output between them in real-time to deliver faster charging to multiple devices, increasing energy efficiency by new generation GaN technology.

• It monitors every second, adjusts the power demand of the charged device every 3 minutes, and dynamically releases excess power to other devices.

• Ensure that all devices meet their charging power requirements to the greatest extent and enhance the charging speed.

• Also, it's widely compatible with over 1000 different devices. It saves users the trouble of finding that their devices are not compatible with the charging devices after purchase.

ActiveShield  2.0

The other highlight is ActiveShield  2.0, which enhances protection by intelligently monitoring

temperature and adjusting power output to safeguard your connected devices.

• The temperature is measured 35 times per second. According to the calculation of 8 hours of sleep at night, the temperature is measured more than 1 million times at night.

• Bringing a safer charging experience to users, allowing customers to sleep peacefully at night without worrying about dangers such as a fire caused by overheating of charging equipment.

Conclusion

Anker constantly updates its technologies and products, not only hoping to bring users a better product experience but also hoping to save resources through technological innovation and contribute to the global ecological balance.

I hope this article can help users understand more about Anker's latest technology GaNPrime, and Anker's sense of social responsibility as a company with its product and technology upgrades. Every user is the source of Anker's continuous innovation. With the support of our users, Anker will continue to give back to society with innovative technological products.
