Security / Functional Safety


Traction inverters are essential components in electric and hybrid vehicle systems, responsible for converting direct current (DC) from the battery into alternating current (AC) to power the electric motor. These devices play a critical role in managing energy flow, ensuring efficient operation, and supporting the overall performance of electrified vehicles. Designed with advanced semiconductor technologies, traction inverters offer high efficiency, reliability, and thermal management, making them suitable for demanding automotive environments.

Integrated with functional safety standards, these inverters ensure secure and stable operation under various driving conditions. They support features such as regenerative braking, torque control, and power distribution, enhancing vehicle performance and energy efficiency. Traction inverters are widely used in electric vehicles (EVs), hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs), contributing to the development of sustainable transportation solutions.

In the context of automotive electronics, traction inverters represent a key innovation in electrification and battery systems. Their design and functionality align with the growing demand for safer, more efficient, and environmentally friendly vehicles. As part of the broader automotive electronics ecosystem, they enable seamless integration with other vehicle systems, including battery management, motor control, and vehicle dynamics. With continuous advancements in semiconductor and software technologies, traction inverters are becoming even more intelligent, adaptive, and integral to the future of mobility.
