Automotive sensor features encrypted SPI communication
LEM has introduced a residual current monitoring (RCM) type B sensor designed for bi-directional on-board chargers (OBCs) with ASIL B capabilities. The CDT sensor addresses safety requirements in vehicle-to-everything (V2X) applications, including vehicle-to-load, vehicle-to-grid, and vehicle-to-vehicle systems. Bi-directional OBCs enable users to power other vehicles, appliances, or homes from their EV battery pack. These systems require […]
Single monitoring unit ams to extend EV range
LEM launches the new SMU family. The Single Monitoring Unit (SMU) brings high performance levels to all types of EV technologies – Full Hybrid Electric Vehicles (FHEVs), Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEVs), and Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs). The new modular SMU family meets the needs of designers of automotive battery management systems (BMS) who are […]
Automotive-grade current sensors aids designers in maximizing autonomy range of EVs
One of the biggest issues in the EV sector is the need to develop vehicles that can travel the furthest possible distances between charges and so design engineers are continually searching for sensors that can offer the superior levels of efficiency and accuracy they require. The CAB 1500 is the latest member of LEM’s CAB […]
