Whitepaper-Separating Charging and Load Requirements for Advanced Drivetrain and HV-DCDC Applications

Abstract

For modern electric vehicles, voltage conversion is essential, as is an always-available power supply – especially in safety-critical applications such as x-by-wire applications and ADAS. By separating charging and load requirements, advanced powertrain configurations and HV-DCDC applications can be implemented. Semiconductors play a crucial role in this.
