In a groundbreaking collaboration, Texas Instruments (TI) and Delta Electronics have joined forces to revolutionize electric vehicle (EV) onboard charging and power solutions. This long-term partnership leverages both companies’ expertise in power management and delivery, with a joint innovation laboratory established in Pingzhen, Taiwan.
Driving the Future: Safer, Faster-Charging, and Affordable EVs
Lighter, Cost-Effective 11kW Onboard Charger
Delta is spearheading the development of an 11kW onboard charger, aiming for a lighter, more cost-effective solution. By utilizing TI’s latest C2000™ real-time microcontrollers (MCUs) and proprietary active electromagnetic interference (EMI) filter products, the charger’s size will shrink by 30%, while achieving an impressive 95% power conversion efficiency.
Automotive Safety Integrity Levels (ASILs) Up to ASIL D
TI and Delta are pushing the boundaries further. Leveraging the latest C2000 real-time MCUs for automotive applications, they enable automakers to achieve ASIL D, the strictest automotive safety requirements. Highly integrated automotive isolated gate drivers enhance onboard charger power density while minimizing overall solution size.
A Greener Tomorrow
The collaboration aims to accelerate the realization of a greener future. By optimizing power density, performance, and size, TI and Delta contribute to safer, faster-charging, and more affordable EVs. Their joint efforts will shape the landscape of electric mobility, fostering a win-win situation in this rapidly developing market.
