Directed Energy Inc. (DEI) is now part of Berkeley Nucleonics Corporation (BNC)!

Directed Energy (DEI) was founded in 1987 as Directed Energy, Incorporated by George Krausse, Dave Adamson, and Ron Sherwood. The goal was simple; bring RF Power MOSFETs to the industry and provide uncompromising performance through our patented DE-Series low inductance, high speed, high power density package. As we worked with customers we realized that there was also a need for system and module products that provided high power and/or high voltage pulses at high speed. We developed the instrument product line to fill satisfy this need and help customers fulfill their end requirements without the need to develop, manufacture or maintain this niche technology.

Designing the original DE-Series package to achieve the extreme performance improvements meant using our patented low inductance design along with BeO, Aluminum Nitride ceramic components along with other specialized materials. As the technology became more widely accepted, we realized that many markets that were not currently using our device would benefit from the high performance of our package design.
