A 48V/12V DC/DC Converter for Electric Vehicles

Application

Light-duty electric vehicles, particularly for 48V systems

Research

power electronics converters in electric vehicles

The project will try to shrink the size of 48V/12V dcdc converter using GaN and planar inductors. The switching frequency is pushed high to reduce the magnetic size. The final goal is to reach 4kW and >98% efficiency.

How WBG Can Help

Showcaising EPC low-voltage GaN devices to EV sectors.
