Automobiles have an increasing number of radar sensors to facilitate advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), with several medium- and long-range radars to support autonomous driving up to Society of Automotive Engineers Level 2.

Performance, efficiency, flexibility and protection – these are the attributes paramount to power electronics technologies, such as motor control, digital power, renewable energies, lighting, and electrical vehicles.

In electric vehicle (EV) charging and solar inverter systems, current sensors measure current flow by monitoring the voltage drop across a shunt resistor or the magnetic fields generated by current flowing through a conductor.

This paper takes an in-depth look into the trends affecting BMS development, as well as how the major subsystems work together to improve safety and efficiency.

The TMCS1123 is a galvanically isolated Hall-effect current sensor with industry leading isolation and accuracy. An output voltage proportional to the input current is provided with excellent linearity and low drift at all sensitivity options. 

Analysing how isolators fail under high voltage, high current stress fault conditions is important in order to determine if additional measures are required to prevent an electrical hazard.

The ISOM871x devices are single-channel opto-emulators with diode-emulator inputs and digital outputs. The devices are pin-compatible and drop-in replaceable for many traditional optocouplers, allowing enhancement to industry-standard packages with no PCB redesign.

There are a variety of architectures and topologies used in electric vehicle powertrain subsystems like onboard chargers (OBCs) and high-voltage to low-voltage DC/ DC converters. Efficient control and management of the power flow in these systems can be achieved using one or more real-time microcontrollers (MCUs).

The biggest disruption in the automotive industry in the past decade is the move toward software-defined vehicles. Traditional vehicle designs had hardware-based subsystems dedicated to specific functions such as the powertrain or infotainment. With the need to upgrade car models quickly, integrating multiple functions by building modular, flexible subsystems, also known as “zones,” becomes more efficient. Instead of dedicated domain ...
