Navitas Names Davin Lee to Board to Support Pivot to High-Power Markets

Overview

• Navitas appointed veteran executive Davin Lee to its board effective now, with seats on the compensation and governance committees and a 2027 reelection plan.
• Lee brings more than 30 years in power chips, most recently running embedded processing and analog at Renesas, with earlier roles at Dialog, Scintera, Intersil, Xicor, Altera, and National Semiconductor.
• The company says the hire supports its shift to high-power uses like AI data centers, grid and energy systems, performance computing, and industrial electrification.
• This fills an open seat in an ongoing board refresh, with a plan to trim the board to eight directors by the 2027 annual meeting after adding Greg Fisher last month.
• Navitas builds GaN and SiC power chips that switch electricity faster with less heat, a design that can lower energy use in data centers and heavy industrial gear, and it reports over 300 patents.
