I've looked at a few higher-power chips, such as the venerable 7805 voltage regulator, but I don't know if that's high-power enough for you :-) There's no high-power secret inside that chip except it uses large transistors. https://www.righto.com/2014/09/reverse-engineering-counterfeit-7805.html https://www.righto.com/2014/09/reverse-engineering-counterfe...

Parent might be thinking of those Gallium-Nitride FETs that enable manufacturers to build suspiciously small power bricks.

  I thought that was due to the higher switching frequency of the power transistors, perhaps unrelated to higher current draw in the transistor?
