Features and advantages of highly integrated power electronics

Compact design

By integrating many functions into a single component, the space requirement is reduced. This is particularly important in applications where the available space is limited.

Increased efficiency

Integration makes it possible to design power electronics systems more efficiently by reducing unnecessary interconnections and minimizing contact resistance. This contributes to lower power loss and improves the overall energy efficiency of the system.

Less external interfaces

By integrating several functions in one component, external interfaces can be eliminated. This enables a more compact and cost-effective design.

Weight saving

Less cables, connectors and housings result in a lighter system. In electric vehicles, this leads to improved handling and an increased range.

Lower manufacturing costs

By reducing the number of separate components, production is simplified and manufacturing costs are reduced. There are also fewer assembly steps and less components for integration.

Improved reliability

When fewer individual components are required, there are less potential sources of error. In addition, the integration of protection functions (such as overvoltage protection, overcurrent protection and temperature monitoring) on one chip enables more reliable performance.

Faster response times

Highly integrated systems can react more quickly to changes in the system because the electronic components are closer together and there is less signal delay.

Combo Units

Possible combinations are for example on-board chargers with DC DC converters or boosters with DC DC converters
