NXP Semiconductors Electric Vehicle (EV) Traction Inverters

NXP Semiconductors Electric Vehicle (EV) Traction Inverters are critical devices in electric vehicles that convert DC power from the battery to AC power to drive the traction motor. The inverters provide high power levels from 80kW to over 200kW to withstand high temperatures while being lightweight.

The NXP EV traction inverter system solution includes multicore lockstep MCUs, safety SBCs, Ethernet PHY, CAN, and high-voltage gate drivers to implement power conversion to the traction motor with high efficiency and reliability.

NXP's system solution supplies a rich set of motor control software packages to accompany the optimized hardware. The system also furnishes precise control, monitoring, and protection of high-power switches for energy efficiency and reliability. It offers accurate and efficient motor speed and torque control and allows ASIL D compliance with ISO 26262 requirements.
