electric vehicles

EV batteries and battery packs are complex systems, requiring a comprehensive design and testing strategy to help ensure safe and efficient electrical power.

DC-DC converters are among the most important modules in an electric vehicle. In this article, we offer three recommendations to address design aspects of DC-DC converters that will make a huge difference in their EMC performance.

A group of international researchers has reportedly developed a new formula for solder that...

This article presents the EMC design techniques for electric vehicle powertrain modules. High voltage EMC regulations for powertrain modules are reviewed first to help understand associated design challenges. The design techniques are then demonstrated in detail to help engineers design a module that will pass the EMC requirements in the test chamber.

Scientists are working on a practical method for charging electric cars, robots, and even drones wirelessly.

Researchers from Penn State University have devised a new way to fully charge the battery in an electric vehicle in just ten minutes.

Standardization for EV testing continues to evolve. Tim Horacek, Product Manager of AMETEK CTS discusses trends, challenges and development of testing standards for electric vehicles.

Patrick Bolliger of HV TECHNOLOGIES, Inc. explains why DC-based power supply technologies used in...

Penn State scientists have created a new battery that can rapidly charge and self-heat no matter what the outside temperature may be.
