This letter presents a novel technology for the integration of gallium nitride (GaN) power devices with silicon control circuits. It comprises stacked GaN power transistors and bipolar-CMOS-double-diffused metal-oxide-semiconductor (DMOS) (BCD) circuits. It leverages on both advantages of the high-v...
