Vehicle Electrification

 

The automotive industry is moving towards electrification to reduce carbon emissions and introduce new vehicle features. This shift requires more power, especially for higher current voltage applications within mechanical limits. Ceramic substrates offer a solution by improving vehicle performance, reducing power losses, and optimizing thermal management. Ceramic substrates have high electrical and thermal conductivity, allowing them to handle increased power demand while being lightweight and compact. Ceramic substrates are also wear and corrosion-resistant, which ensures long-term reliability and durability for electric vehicles.

EV/HEV Converters & Inverters

 

Efficient thermal management is crucial for reliable electronic systems, especially in electric vehicles where IGBT power modules generate a lot of heat. To reduce size and weight, design strategies like integration of system components can help. Additionally, minimizing the number of IGBT power chips used can decrease thermal issues. Ceramic substrates are an optimal solution for vehicle electrification due to their improved performance, minimal power losses, and excellent thermal management. With ceramic substrates, EV system reliability and quality could improve while reducing thermally-induced damage. Efficient thermal management and ceramic substrate integration in power components can optimize EV performance, reduce costs, and improve long-term reliability.

LED Light Systems

 

DPC ceramic substrates are widely used in automotive lighting, mainly for the heat dissipation and stability of LED lighting systems.
Compared with traditional halogen car lights, LED lights are more energy-efficient, durable, and brighter. DPC ceramic substrates with high thermal conductivity and oxidation resistance, which helps to dissipate heat effectively and ensure stable operation of LEDs, thereby extending its service life.
