Silicon Carbide Inverter
Developed and produced in-house, this silicon carbide (SiC) inverter delivers highly efficient power usage. Its design is dedicated to commercial vehicle
Our 800-Volt Silicon Carbide Inverter for Electrified Vehicles uses an innovative, double-side cooled silicon carbide (SiC) based power switch that delivers the higher power densities and efficiencies needed to extend battery range and performance, and reduce costs.
Thanks to the use of silicon carbide semiconductor technology, the efficiency of the fourth generation of our inverters is increased and the range of vehicles is extended. With a higher power density and lower losses, as well as its compact design, it is very attractive for use in electric vehicles.
The responsiveness of the inverter and the electric motor it controls correlate directly to the “feel” of the vehicle and consumer satisfaction. Power levels from 40 kW to 250+ kW are common, and these systems require extremely robust IGBT and silicon carbide (SiC) components.
The inverter's SiC technology can help extend electric vehicle range by c.5% and enables faster charging times at 800-volts when compared to today's 400-volt systems. SiC helps extend PHEV and BEV range by approximately 5% and enables faster charging times - delivering a better solution with more power, in a smaller package and for less cost.
