Vicor Corporation (Andover, MA) announced that Vicor K.K Japan (Headquarters: Shinagawa ward, Tokyo) will present automotive power architectures using high density power conversion approaches for EVs at the Automotive Engineering Exposition 2025 Nagoya and ONLINE STAGE 2 sponsored by the Society of Automotive Engineers of Japan (JSAE).

Tetsuo Haoka, Principal Field Application Engineer at Vicor KK, will present “Vehicle power architecture for the SDV era consisting of Vicor modules.”  

Vicor automotive grade power modules optimize 48V zonal architectures for EVs. Vicor's small, lightweight and highly flexible modules are ideal for configuring power systems for SDV 48V zonal architectures. The modules are also perfect for powering actuators that require instantaneous high output while still driving at a low voltage of 48V, such as active suspension and steer-by-wire.

In this seminar, Tetsuo will demonstrate the benefits of using Vicor's DC-DC converter modules, which are essential to downsizing the vehicle power delivery network (PDN). He will explain the mechanical structure inside the unit while showing a newly designed in-vehicle DC-DC unit prototype.

Vicor KK will be co-exhibiting at the Mouser Electronics booth, displaying the latest Vicor automotive products.

Stop by the Mouser booth for a short presentation on the Vicor automotive grade power modules, which enable the highest power density while reducing power losses across the PDN. Learn how Vicor modules also support highly efficient high voltage to SELV (traction battery to 48V) conversion, powering points of load from a 48V bus, and powering traditional 12V subsystems with 48V zone architectures.

Also join us for an online seminar “Vicor's latest power solutions, maximizing the benefits of zonal electrical and electronic architectures “, presented in Automotive Engineering Exposition ONLINE STAGE 1. Due to popular demand, we are re-releasing it for a limited time only.

Learn about what new, innovative products Vicor will present at Automotive Engineering Exposition 2025 online STAGE 2 and Nagoya.
