ROHM Semiconductor has taken a significant leap forward in the power conversion sector with the release of its new silicon carbide (SiC) molded modules, tailored for electric vehicle applications. Discover the details at Semiconductor Today.

The newly announced 4-in-1 and 6-in-1 modules integrated in the novel HSDIP20 package are optimized for power factor correction (PFC) and LLC converters in on-board chargers (OBCs) for electric vehicles (xEVs). These modules promise not only to enhance the efficiency of power conversion systems but also to facilitate the miniaturization of these components, key for modern vehicle design.

By incorporating advanced thermal management capabilities, these SiC modules offer industry-leading power density, helping electric vehicles achieve greater efficiency and longer cruising ranges. ROHM's innovation serves as a cornerstone for manufacturers looking to innovate in compact, high-efficiency power systems, especially crucial as the automotive industry continues to pivot towards electric mobility.
