Cree (Wolfspeed) Distributor

Cree and Wolfspeed relationship: (1) Cree founded in 1987 as LED and semiconductor company. (2) Wolfspeed was Cree's power and RF division. (3) In 2021, Cree sold LED business and rebranded as Wolfspeed. (4) Wolfspeed now focuses exclusively on SiC and GaN power devices. (5) Same technology, same team, new name. (6) Wolfspeed is the global leader in wide bandgap semiconductors. (7) Products still reference Cree legacy part numbers. When searching for Cree power products, look for Wolfspeed branding.

Wolfspeed is the new name for Cree's power semiconductor business; products are fully compatible.
