CISSOID & Silicon Mobility expand partnership with SiC inverter reference design
Summary
This was extremely time consuming and required in depth knowledge of SiC-based power system design. The second option was to buy an off-the-shelf inverter that, however, does not offer the ability to fully customise for the application requirements." Following this agreement, customers can now buy a complete SiC inverter reference design (Fig 1) from CISSOID together with a licence to use the Silicon Mobilitys OLEA APP INVERTER control software and design on top its software application. Once the design is completed, the customer can choose to purchase the entire inverter Bill-of-Material (BOM) from CISSOID or just the SiC Intelligent Power Module (IPM) and Control Board, while purchasing other components and Inverter housing from their preferred suppliers. David Fresneau, VP Marketing and Business Development at Silicon Mobility added: "This is a great opportunity for our customers to get access to our advanced e-motor control hardware and software platform and a fully integrated high performance inverter reference design from CISSOID which will significantly simplify the design process and reduce Time-to Market."
