OTTAWA, ON / ACCESSWIRE / May 20, 2021 /GaN Systems, the world leader in GaN (gallium nitride) power semiconductors, today announced that the Syng Cell Alpha wireless speaker uses GaN Systems transistors. Innovative audio company Syng is founded by former Apple designer Christopher Stringer, who helped develop the HomePod, iPhone, iPad and MacBook, and entrepreneur Damon Way, co-founder of DC Shoes and Incase. The brand has sparked excitement in the home audio market with the launch of its high-fidelity spatial sound system that delivers clear, detailed, and immersive sound in a sleek, durable and functional design.
The Cell Alpha has two woofers in an opposing configuration; three element bidirectional beamforming matrix; and three built-in microphones that can calibrate audio based on room acoustics for the ultimate sound quality. Several cell Alphas can also be networked together for surround sound.
“The Cell Alpha is a new start for home audio and sets the standard for how we experience and interact with sound,” said Dave Turnbull, head of engineering at Syng. “With GaN power semiconductors, our designers were able to build something entirely new and revolutionary without being hampered by an inferior power supply.”
This recent collaboration between Syng and GaN Systems highlights the growing use of GaN in the audio market, from amplifiers to complementary power supplies. By replacing old silicon transistors with GaN, audio companies can make vast design improvements, including higher audio quality, smaller size, more power, and increased efficiency.

The sound and transformative characteristics of the Cell Alpha derive from its unique design. This design requires extreme performance from the electronics – they have to fit into a small space and provide huge transients while generating minimal heat. This type of challenge is a suitable application for GaN Systems transistors, which offer unmatched switching performance in an extremely small package. The Cell Alpha’s internal power supply uses GaN Systems 650V and 100V transistors in a design optimized to meet Syng’s demanding technical requirements at low cost and eliminates the need for a heat sink or external cooling.
