GLOBAL SILICON CARBIDE(SIC) ON BOARD CHARGER MARKET

INTRODUCTION

In electric vehicles (EVs), an onboard charger (OBC) is a power electronics component that transforms AC power from external sources, such as household outlets, to DC electricity to charge the battery pack.

Depending on the architecture, SiC-based OBCs may have an efficiency of around 97%. This causes a loss of around 230 W for an 11 kW system, which is comparable to what 3.6 kW systems currently have to handle.

As a result, a SiC-based 11 kW system may now be supported by the same cooling system that was used for an IGBT-based 3.6 kW system.

GLOBAL SILICON CARBIDE(SIC) ON BOARD CHARGER MARKET SIZE AND FORECAST

The Global Silicon Carbide(Sic) on board charger market accounted for $XX Billion in 2022 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2023 to 2030.

NEW PRODUCT LAUNCH

Onsemi Launches Automotive Silicon Carbide-Based Power Module Trio for On-Board Chargers.A trio of silicon carbide (SiC)-based power modules in transfer moulded technology are designed to be used in all forms of electric vehicles (xEV) for on-board charging and high voltage (HV) DC DC conversion.

The APM32 series, which is uniquely created for high-power 11–22kW on-board chargers (OBC), combines SiC technology into a transfer moulded packaging to improve efficiency and reduce charge times for xEVs.

To handle the 800V bus voltage, each of the three modules has minimal conduction and switching losses, best-in-class thermal resistance, and excellent voltage isolation.

A more potent OBC is finally made possible by the increased efficiency and decreased heat generation. One that can extend the xEV's operational range and charge it more quickly—two essential features for users.

The APM32 modules provide high levels of dependability and each module is serialised for complete traceability by utilising onsemi's end-to-end SiC supply chain capability and tested SiC MOSFETs and diodes.

The modules' ability to operate at junction temperatures (Tj) of up to 175 °C guarantees dependability even in difficult, limited automotive applications.

The H-bridge architecture of two APM32 series modules, NVXK2TR40WXT and NVXK2TR80WDT, with a breakdown (V(BR)DSS) capability of 1200 V, guarantees their appropriateness for high voltage battery stacks. They are intended for usage during the stages of OBC and HV DC DC conversion.

The third module, NVX K2KR80WDT, is utilised in the power factor correction (PFC) stage of the OBC and is set in Vienna Rectifier architecture. To complete the SiC OBC offering, six-pack and full-bridge modules.
