Leading and Innovative Semiconductor Solutions for Hybrid and Electric Vehicles

Although electric drivetrains are already more energy-efficient than combustion models, further improvements are still required. Infineon delivers various chips and modules that can play a valuable role in minimizing power losses, maximizing power savings and boosting performance.

As a leading supplier of high-power IGBT modules for drive and traction applications for many decades now, Infineon supplied the IGBT modules that powered the TGV to a new world speed record in 2007, for example. Drawing on its industrial experience, Infineon has developed dedicated (H)EV
power modules delivering the ultimate in power density and efficiency.

As the world leader in advanced power and automotive electronics, Infineon has the broadest product portfolio for high-efficiency electric drivetrain designs. Combining affordability with ecology, our electromobility solutions help to significantly reduce the overall system cost of powertrain and
electronics, increase mileage and improve battery efficiency. Carmakers and system suppliers can rely on best-in-class semiconductor products from Infineon Technologies to drive new innovations.

For example, active cell balancing developed by Infineon extends the life and capacity of batteries by at least 10 percent. And this is only one example. Suitable for all electric drivetrain architectures, Infineon’s product portfolio comprises discrete components, power semiconductors, microcontrollers and sensors, as well as high-power modules. Thanks to our system expertise, we are able to provide complete chipsets offering optimized performance while reducing overall system costs.

Infineon’s semiconductor solutions for (H)EV are testament to the company’s ongoing commitment to deliver the exceptional quality and reliability that the world’s leading car and automotive system manufacturers expect.
