Fast EV charging trends and system solutions

The increasing demand for Electric Vehicle (EV) infrastructure has created a highly competitive market for EV charging systems, in which design engineers must differentiate their systems in terms of size, efficiency, and performance. Infineon meets this demand through their vast semiconductor portfolio for the whole system.

With a broad range of both silicon and wide bandgap solutions for power, as well as solutions for control, connectivity, and security, designers can find the best-fit products for their system requirements all in one place.

Practical reference designs and evaluation boards for various EV charging systems jumpstart the design-in phase, while Infineon’s extensive global support network, comprehensive training catalog, and detailed product documentation ensure customers can bring their designs to market faster.

More Electric Vehicles (EVs) mean more EV charging – and more energy demand. That’s why it’s important to optimize the whole energy cycle, which is where bidirectional power flow comes in.

Simply put, bidirectional power flow means energy can flow in two directions. This feature allows EVs to act as energy storage systems to help minimize increasing demands on the power grid. Bidirectional power flow can be integrated into the car’s onboard charger or into the charging system like a DC wallbox.

Infineon’s comprehensive portfolio including CoolSiC™ MOSFET discretes, CoolSiC™ MOSFET modules, and EiceDRIVER™ isolated gate drivers. The 11 kW SiC bi-directional DC/DC converter board for EV charging make designing bidirectional systems simpler and let you bring your design to market faster than ever.

Benefit from one of the most comprehensive, ready-to-implement one-stop product and design portfolios on the market that covers the entire product range from power conversion, microcontrollers, security, auxiliary power supply, and communication.
