EV Automotive and Battery Test Advancements

Power conversion within an electric vehicle (EV) includes AC or DC EVSE (EV Supply Equipment), onboard charger, DC-DC converter, and motor driver. Chroma’s EV automated test equipment addresses the specialized requirements involved in testing the power electronics of electric vehicles during design validation as well as production. The benefits include flexibility, speed, and test data recording, as well as providing statistical analytical reports for design review and product improvement.

OBC & DC-DC Converter Power HIL Testbed

Chroma 8620
