5kW Low voltage electric traction inverter

Solution Description

This highly versatile and efficient electric traction inverter solution can deliver 5kW of power for an automotive drivetrain at the common low speed electric  vehicle battery voltage of 48V.

The design features an automotive SPC5 MCU with FOC library to control a programmable L9907 gate driver for three-phase synchronous motors, with fault monitoring and diagnostics capabilities.

The power is delivered through 36 STripFET F7 automotive-grade power MOSFETS arrayed on an insulated metal substrate (IMS) for superior thermal dissipation.

Bus link capacitors ensure a more stable supply input, and sensing elements provide the necessary motor current feedback information for effective motor control.
