Next Generation Power Converter Designs (Part 4)

Application Notes

Introduction

The need to reduce energy consumption as well as CO2 emissions is driving the growth of power electronics and power converters. These needs are driven by growth in the vehicle electrification and home energy management systems where renewable energy usage is becoming more prevalent. Two of the main power converter design drivers are increased conversion efficiency and better reliability. In green energy applications such as solar power, Levelized Cost of Energy (LCOE) is the main decider for what solar inverter a customer chooses for their solar installation. Both efficiency and reliability are two of the main variables in the LCOE algorithm that determines whether your inverter company gets the sale or not. In hybrid electric (HEV) and electric vehicles (EV) reliability is tied to an automotive manufacturer’s reputation and is also linked to safety and the preservation of human life. Hence comprehensive EV test for the various vehicle electrical subsystems at the design and test stages is vital.
