Cree introduces SiC 650V MOSFETs targeting EVs, data centers and solar

Green Car Congress

650V devices, which use Cree’s third-generation C3M MOSFET technology, deliver up to 20% lower switching losses than competing silicon carbide MOSFETs and provide the lowest on-state resistances for higher efficiency and power dense solutions, the company said. Enabling up to 70% higher power density compared to silicon.

ams introduces new position sensors for high-speed electric motors for vehicles

Green Car Congress

The sensors incorporate new DFS (Dynamic Filter System) technology for more accurate, low-noise position measurements at rotation speed. The DAEC (Dynamic Angle Error Correction) technology in the sensors enables almost zero latency at high speed, for ultra-accurate, real-time angle measurement. This combination is unique to ams.

The State of Medium- and Heavy-Duty Vehicle Electrification

Driivz

Electric school buses equipped with vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology also have tremendous potential as “batteries on wheels” that can store electricity and provide it to the grid or to buildings when needed. Growth in the MHD manufacturing sector is helping accelerate adoption as well. and Europe. However, that is likely to change.
