DC and AC solutions for EV charging
Along with the ever-growing number of electric vehicles on the market and pressure from governments to reduce vehicle emissions to zero latest by 2050, there is a strong need for more efficient charging solutions. As various consumer studies show, the acceptance of electromobility very much depends on the availability and duration of the charging process, high-power DC fast charging stations are an important piece addressing these market requirements. Already today, a typical EV can charge about 80% of its battery capacity in less than 10 minutes. This is comparable to refueling a conventional car with internal combustion engine. In addition to DC fast charging stations there AC EV Charging offers a lower cost alternative when EV users have sufficient time to charge their EV's.
As the market leader in power electronics, Infineon helps you to bring energy-efficient DC fast charging designs and ready-to-use AC EV charging solutions to life. 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.
Infineon’s discrete products offer the best price/performance ratio. These include on the one hand side our products for power conversion like 600 V CoolMOS™ SJ MOSFET P7 and CFD7 families,600 V CoolMOS™ 8, 650 V IGBT TRENCHSTOP™ 5 and 650V/750V/1200 V CoolSiC™ MOSFET. Our CoolMOS™ and CoolSiC™ MOSFETs matchless advantages include high frequency operation, high power density and reduced switching losses. Our portfolio of high voltage switches is complimented by 650 V and 1200 V CoolSiC™ Schottky diodes. Since every switch needs a driver, and every driver needs to be controlled, we also offer the matching EiceDRIVER™ gate driver as well as XMC™ and AURIX™ microcontrollers for EV charging designs. Infineon's portfolio offer as well IGBTs CoolSiC™ MOSFETs and diode power modules, e.g. CoolSiC™ Easy Modules, IGBT EconoPACK™ and the IGBT EconoDUAL™ family. Charger piles with a capacity of more than 100kW are usually built in a modular approach with stacked sub-units. Our products for charge control include Infineon’s AIROC™ Wi-Fi & Bluetooth® combo chips, the PSOC6 microcontrollers, XENSIV™ current sensors, NOR flash memories, CoolSET™ & OPTIGA™ ensuring data protection and security.
