Join us in Houston, as the Applied Power Electronics Conference (APEC) returns to an in-person format. Come visit NXP’s booth (#223) and learn how NXP helps provide scalable and safe solutions that reduce overall cost, extend the range and accelerate EV system development and eelectrification—with safety and security built-in. APEC focuses on the practical and applied aspects of the power electronics business.
Range and reliability continue to be important topics in electric vehicle development. A major component that impacts range and reliability is the traction inverter. With the advent of high-performance, intelligent gate drivers, higher performance can be achieved without sacrificing reliability. A more recent development in the driving of power devices to achieve better performance is gate wave shaping or gate strength control. This presentation introduces Segmented Drive and Dynamic Gate Strength Control as two methods to control gate strength and empirically shows the positive impact gate strength has on voltage stress reduction (reliability) and efficiency improvement (range).
See how NXP accelerates the shift to a more mobile, sustainable future through comprehensive system solutions for autonomy, connectivity and electrification with safety and security built-in.
Seamless transitions are critical between the analog world and the digital domain where more and more data processing takes place in the cloud. NXP advanced analog products intelligency convert analog occurrences into digital information for the automotive, industrial, IoT and mobile markets.
