Automotive OEMs across the globe are announcing aggressive plans to launch new models of battery electric vehicles (BEVs), plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) and full-hybrid electric vehicles (FHEV as they are both experiencing double-digit growth rates.
As automotive designs move to electrification, high-wattage power electronics become critical components in the new electronic drive train and battery systems. These high-wattage electronics need to be communicated with and controlled by low-voltage digital controllers requiring electrical isolation of the low-voltage side from the high-power system. In these applications, galvanic isolation, usually semiconductor-based isolation, is required to allow the digital controllers to safely interface with the high voltage systems of a modern EV.
Dive into the details of isolation for battery management systems, electric vehicle (EV) DC-DC converters, EV on-board chargers and EV traction inverters in this in-depth overview and reference guide from the experts at Skyworks.
