Chip Talk > Wise-Integration's Journey to Electric Vehicle Charger Pioneering with SiC Technology
Published May 05, 2025
Announcing itself in a grand fashion at PCIM 2025, Wise-integration has introduced its Silicon Carbide (SiC) 7kW demo board, specifically crafted for on-board electric vehicle (EV) chargers. This demonstration marks a pivotal move as Wise-integration spans multiple wide-bandgap (WBG) technologies, thus enhancing its influence in the automotive and electronic sectors.
Wise-integration initiated its journey by dominating the market with Gallium Nitride (GaN) based systems. By transitioning to Silicon Carbide technology, the firm is laying groundwork in high-voltage applications crucial for automotive and industrial purposes. This strategic shift underlines the versatility of WiseWare’s digital controller which is agnostic to the semiconductor material, effortlessly bridging GaN and SiC platforms.
The introduction of the WiseWare 1 OBC SiC 7kW model is not merely about entering a new market space but setting a benchmark. The demo signifies a synergetic collaboration with Savoy International Group, a leadership trailblazer in the automotive sector. Together, they aim to position this innovative SiC charger as a powerhouse within the broader electric vehicle ecosystem.
By embedding WiseWare’s control platform into EV applications, Wise-integration ensures reliable and adaptable performance, laying the foundation for next-generation mobility solutions.
Renowned for its robust thermal performance and efficiency under high-power conditions, Silicon Carbide proves indispensable for components like traction inverters and fast charging systems. Its maturity and rugged nature further solidify its reliability, essential qualities when dealing with the demanding environment of automotive applications.
WiseWare operates on a distinct framework, offering a digital-first approach that wires out complexity and enables system integrators to tailor power systems to specific use cases. This path provides immense flexibility with an open, modular design not confined to any proprietary hardware.
As Wise-integration aims to revolutionize EV charging solutions, they are not just selling an innovative product, but a vision where semiconductors adapt instead of dictate application parameters. This ambition ensures lower vendor lock-in, a faster design process, and a compact blueprint for future automotive and industrial integrations.
In summary, Wise-integration is crafting a niche in the crowded semiconductor space by combining GaN and SiC platforms for flexible power solutions. Their journey from developing GaN chargers for e-bike batteries to promoting cutting-edge SiC applications reflects an evolutionary mindset poised to tackle the dynamic challenges of tomorrow's electric vehicles.
