Applications

The influence light can have on us is no longer a secret. It is therefore no surprise to see car interiors being upgraded for our comfort and safety, especially when you can reduce the design complexity thanks to a scalable & flexible lighting architecture solution.

In order to optimize energy while increasing the All-Electric Range (AER), a perfect thermal management system is key. Melexis products enable higher system integration towards a safer and cost-effective thermal management, maximizing the AER and improving the driver experience.

The function of the onboard charger is to efficiently, reliably and safely convert AC electricity from the electrical grid (e.g. household plug) to DC electricity so it can be stored in the battery of the electrified vehicle (xEV).

The DC/DC converter produces low voltage DC electricity (e.g. 12 V, 14 V, 24 V) from the high voltage battery (e.g. 48 V up to 800 V) to supply the boardnet and charge the low voltage battery.

In electric vehicles, the inverter converts DC power from the battery to AC power for the motor drive, which in turn transforms it into propulsion power. The efficiency of this system has a direct impact on the all-electric range, road performance and comfort.
