48V instead of 12V: DC‑DC converters in focus of the SDV
Future vehicles use 12V, 48V, and HV rails. Vicor experts discuss the vital role of DC-DC converters in SDVs, focusing on energy efficiency and safety
EVs can be confusing from a “what voltage does it run at” perspective. We have the 12-V lead-acid batteries that have been around for decades. But there are many new sizes, types, chemistries, and voltages. Listen to the podcast to learn how less is more when using power modules for auto electrification.
