Electric vehicle (EV) architectures operating at 800 V and above deliver measurable efficiency gains by reducing current for a given power level. Because resistive losses scale with the square of current, lower current reduces conduction losses across cables, busbars, and switching components. At the same time, higher bus voltage shifts design constraints across the entire […]

How are impedance mismatches at connector interfaces handled in mixed-voltage EV architectures?
In electric vehicle (EV) architectures, high-voltage (HV) traction systems coexist with low-voltage (LV) high-speed data networks, such as Automotive Ethernet. This configuration creates a complex electromagnetic environment in which impedance mismatches at connector interfaces can lead to signal degradation, electromagnetic interference (EMI) noncompliance, and power loss. This FAQ outlines the technical methods used to identify […]
