Inverter 800V voltage

What is a high voltage inverter?

The inverter is the brain at the heart of the powertrain, it controls the electric motor. It converts Direct Current (DC) from the battery to Alternative Current (AC) to power the electric Motor.

How does a Valeo 800V sic inverter work?

It converts Direct Current (DC) from the battery to Alternative Current (AC) to power the electric Motor. It can also be used in reverse mode to charge the battery by transforming kinetic energy from the vehicle into electrical energy that can be stored in the battery. What are Valeo 800V SiC inverter benefits?

Do traction inverters need a backup power supply?

As automotive applications continue to trend in the direction of increased safety, it has become more common to include a high-voltage to low-voltage backup supply in the traction inverter system. The backup power supply powers the low-voltage components if the 12-V battery fails.

Does a 800 V traction inverter need a silicon carbide solution?

800 V traction inverter requires a silicon carbide solution. Intrinsically SiC material is more reliable and durable than traditional silicon IGBTs. Wolfspeed saw an opportunity to integrate advanced packaging technology into their automotive qualified YM package to deliver further enhanced system durability,
