Infineon and Swoboda Collaborate to Develop High-Performance Current Sensors for Electromobility: Revolutionizing Automotive Applications
Infineon Technologies AG and Swoboda are working together to create advanced current sensors for electric vehicles. By combining Infineon's top-notch current sensor ICs with Swoboda's knowledge in developing sensor modules, they aim to meet the increasing demand for sensing solutions in the automotive industry. This collaboration will speed up the introduction of high-quality current measurement solutions for popular applications like traction inverters and battery management systems in hybrid and electric vehicles, as well as other important automotive uses.
One of the new products, the Swoboda CSM510HP2, includes a compact current sensor module that maintains high performance while taking up less space. This module utilizes the Infineon TLE4973 coreless current sensor IC for precise sensing with an error margin of less than 2 percent. It is specially designed to seamlessly work with the HybridPACK™ Drive G2, Infineon's power module for traction inverters in electric vehicles. By eliminating the need for external current sensors, this integration allows for the creation of the smallest traction inverters available in the market.
Klaus Lebherz, the Head of Business Development at Swoboda, stated that the new current sensors are setting higher standards for system integration. He mentioned that the combination of Infineon's sensor technology and Swoboda's expertise in injection molding has proven to be very successful.
Andrea Monterastelli, who is in charge of the Automotive Magnetic Sensors Product Group at Infineon Technologies, stated that there is a strong need in the market for current sensing solutions that are high performance, compact, and easy to integrate. These solutions seamlessly integrate into Infineon's HybridPack Drive G2, providing the most compact option for hybrid and electric vehicles. This is made possible by using top-of-the-line current sensor ICs and leveraging Swoboda's expertise.
Infineon and Swoboda are collaborating to create more current sensing options for various power devices. They are also working on solutions for inverter DC link and high voltage battery management, among other applications.
