Over the last few years, the automotive system has been going through an evolutionary transformation to make the car smarter and more fun to drive. At the same time, there is a time-bound requirement ...

When designing a motor control circuit, it’s vital to determine how to deliver the high current required to drive the motor. Designers must choose whether to use monolithic integrated circuits (ICs) ...

This article is part of the TechXchange: Silicon Carbide (SiC). At the heart of every electric vehicle (EV) is a traction inverter that converts direct current (dc) from the high-voltage battery into ...

Legacy designs of variable frequency drives (VFDs) used optocouplers or pulse transformers for isolation and mated them together with gate driver ICs. A more integrated approach, though, uses ...
