Infineon and Swoboda Collaborate to Develop High-Performance Current Sensors for Electromobility In Automotive Applications
Infineon Technologies AG and Swoboda have joined forces to create advanced current sensor modules for use in vehicles, particularly in hybrid and electric cars. By combining Infineon's top-quality current sensor ICs with Swoboda's skill in developing sensor modules, they aim to meet the increasing demand for sensing solutions in the automotive industry. This collaboration will speed up the time it takes to bring high-volume applications like traction inverters and battery management systems to market, as well as other important automotive technologies.
One of the new products available is the Swoboda CSM510HP2, which includes a compact current sensor module that maintains high performance. It utilizes the Infineon TLE4973 coreless current sensor IC for precise sensing with minimal error. This module is tailored for easy integration with the HybridPACK™ Drive G2, Infineon's power module for electric vehicle traction inverters. By eliminating the need for additional external sensors, it allows for the creation of more compact traction inverters.
Klaus Lebherz, who is in charge of Business Development at Swoboda, mentioned that these new current sensors are setting higher standards for easier integration into systems. He also noted that the combination of Infineon's advanced sensor technology and Swoboda's expertise in injection molding has proven to be a perfect combination.
Andrea Monterastelli, who leads the Automotive Magnetic Sensors Product Group at Infineon Technologies, mentioned that the market is looking for current sensing solutions that are high performing, compact, and easy to integrate. He highlighted that the integration of Infineon's current sensor ICs into the HybridPack Drive G2 provides a compact solution for hybrid and electric vehicles, made possible by the expertise of both Infineon and Swoboda.
Infineon and Swoboda are working together to create new current sensing solutions for various power devices. They are also focusing on applications such as inverter DC link and high voltage battery management.
