Innovations in bidirectional and regenerative braking power applications, together with higher-density batteries and wide-bandgap semiconductors, are adding power and range to the electric vehicle (EV). This high-power EV ecosystem demands reliable and efficient DC-DC power conversion. Energy efficiency depends on many factors, including temperature, operating voltage, percentage of rated power, and other environmental conditions.
Learn how modern power emulation and test tools are helping engineers improve DC-DC converter designs for hybrid and fully electric vehicles.
