EV Charging
The duration of electric vehicle (EV) charging is a key factor in sales, with ultrafast chargers offering the potential to reduce this time to under 20 minutes being a key priority. RECOM offers robust BMS plug connections and custom AC/DC and DC/DC converters for safe, reliable e-mobility solutions.

High battery charging time is majorly affecting the sale of EVs. In response manufacturers are building ultra-fast chargers to cut charging time to less than 20 minutes. At such high voltage, battery management systems (BMS) need mechanically robust plug connections to provide high levels of safety and reliability with constant communication to charging stations.For this monitoring task, RECOM has developed high performance, high voltage AC/DC converters and high isolation DC/DC converters. Charging stations are also using highly isolated DC/DC converters for controlling power semiconductors such as IGBT, silicon carbide or silicon MOSFETs or GAN FETs.
RECOM has developed asymmetric output reinforced isolation DC/DC converters with a range of output voltages suited to the task. Many automobile original equipment manufacturers OEMs are now getting ready to incorporate solid-state batteries SSBs, an alternative to conventional lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries.
SSB batteries replace the liquid or gel form electrolyte found in popular Li-ion batteries with solid conductive electrodes and electrolytes that offer lighter weight with greater energy density, more range at lower cost, and greater safety as they contain no flammable materials. New technologies, such as SSBs require high performance, innovative voltage converters in both production and implementation.
RECOM is ready to deliver custom and semi-custom AC/DC and DC/DC solutions for the constantly evolving e-mobility industry.
