Arrow and Infineon collaborate on EV chargers
Jointly developed 30kW DC fast charger reference platform includes 1200V CoolSiC modules
Arrow and its engineering services company, eInfochips, are working with Infineon to help eInfochips’ customers accelerate the development of electric vehicle (EV) chargers.
As part of the collaboration, Arrow’s High Power Center of Excellence has developed a 30kW DC fast charger reference platform. This includes Infineon’s 1200V CoolSiC Easy power modules and also hardware design, embedded firmware, bi-directional charging support and energy metering functionality.
“Combining Arrow’s strength in components, engineering and design services with Infineon’s innovative products will help customers accelerate their design and speed to market in e-mobility applications,” said Murdoch Fitzgerald, vice president, global engineering and design services at Arrow. “Customers can rely on this collaboration to deliver innovative and leading edge DC faster chargers, accelerate and de-risk design cycles, and get access to a world-class support team enabling them to plan and manage their product roadmap and lifecycles.”
Shri Joshi, vice president of Green Industrial Power, Infineon Technologies Americas said: “The joint 30kW DC fast charger reference platform, which includes Infineon’s latest power modules and devices, will help our customers bring more fast chargers to market as the future moves to electrical vehicles. We look forward to this ongoing collaboration to support our customer base.”
The reference design is being exhibited at the Applied Power Electronics Conference, Feb. 25-29, in Long Beach, California.
