Infineon and Swoboda Collaborate to Develop High-Performance Current Sensors for Electromobility: Accelerating Innovation in Automotive Applications
Infineon Technologies AG and Swoboda are working together to create advanced current sensors for electric vehicles. By combining Infineon's top-of-the-line current sensor ICs with Swoboda's experience in developing sensor modules, the partnership aims to meet the increasing demand for sensor solutions in hybrid and electric cars. These innovative current measurement solutions will help speed up the production of traction inverters, battery management systems, and other important automotive applications.
One of the new products 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 a total error rate of less than 2 percent. This module is designed to easily integrate with the HybridPACK™ Drive G2, Infineon's power module for electric vehicle traction inverters. By eliminating the need for external current sensors, it allows for the creation of more compact traction inverters in the automotive market.
Klaus Lebherz, the Head of Business Development at Swoboda, stated that the new current sensors are revolutionizing system integration. The combination of Infineon's advanced sensor technology and Swoboda's expertise in injection molding has proven to be highly effective.
Andrea Monterastelli, who leads the Automotive Magnetic Sensors Product Group at Infineon Technologies, stated that the market is looking for current sensing solutions that are high performance, compact, and easy to integrate. The current sensor ICs from Infineon, combined with Swoboda's expertise, seamlessly integrate into Infineon's HybridPack Drive G2 to provide the most compact solution for hybrid and electric vehicles.
Infineon and Swoboda are working together to create new current sensing solutions that can be used for various types of power devices. These solutions are also being developed for applications such as inverter DC link and high voltage battery management.
