Paired with our automotive battery management system (BMS), the vehicle's battery is accurately monitored, protected, and optimized. Besides, our configurable high-voltage solid-state relays provide fast switch-off in less than 1 µs, inbuilt diagnostic capabilities, and comprehensive flexibility, helping you comply with ISO 5474-3.
Furthermore, our scalable DC offboard charging delivers up to 350 kW. With wireless charging of inductive and resonant systems, Infineon enables the charging infrastructure to satisfy commercial needs and accommodate future expansion.
Save lives and TCO with autonomous driving
- 24 V EPS with active steering for CAV
- 24 V Fail operational EPS for CAV
- 24 GHz radar for CAV
- Multi-purpose camera
- Primary power distribution center
Infineon’s scalable CAV-dedicated solutions enable seamless data integration, accurate diagnostics, and advanced control for optimal vehicle safety, productivity, and energy efficiency.
Driving assistance functions like lane keep assist, lane centering, or lane keep steering not only ensure a safer operation and reduce the cost of total ownership but also reduce CO₂ emissions.
The electrohydraulic power steering (EHPS) accurately supplies oil and pressure to hydraulic steering systems on demand. It communicates with sensors through the CAN bus transmitting data on actual steering wheel position and torque as well as vehicle speed. Also, the data from cameras and radars triggers failure detection and isolation with resettable protection, all in less than 100 µs.
With seamless data integration and fast isolation, Infineon supports you with three major trends: CO₂ reduction, upcoming Level 3 and Level 4 automated driving stages, and reduction of insurance costs.
Thrive under harshness with flexibility
Infineon provides highly integrated functionality and scalable solutions to enable commercial vehicles' ever-expanding list of functions with ever smaller board space, achieving lower design costs, and unlocking the full potential of your CAV.
Our comprehensive solution for 24 V body ECUs maximizes design flexibility by integrating superior diagnostics and protection features with the "Limp Home" functional safety concept on a single board.
No matter if they are brushless, brushed, or unidirectional DC motors, Infineon’s low voltage motor control units deliver efficient integrated and discrete solutions for both 12 V and 24 V systems and are equipped with diagnostic and protective functions.
Paired with Infineon’s hydraulic and pneumatic valve control systems, our broad range of body application solutions ensures precision, robustness, and adaptability in harsh environments while being cost-effective.
