To achieve EV potential by squeezing more functionality into a given volume, and delivering value at a compelling price point, means there are strong incentives for integrating motor and inverter.
Infineon’s reference design for high-power data center power supplies employs advanced power-conversion topologies in both the AC-DC and DC-DC power stages.
This article discusses different types of motors, basic motor-driver parameters, and specific design requirements to consider when searching for the ideal motor driver for a host of applications.
Multiple motors and independent control of each wheel of an EV provides optimal performance and handling. But the complexities of implementation should be understood so that results can match expectations.
ROHM’s three-phase motor driver implements proprietary control technology to significantly reduce motor power consumption by minimizing switching losses.
