Semiconductor demand across all HEV/EV segments
through 2026
Silicon Carbide (SiC) has emerged as a more efficient transistor in its ability to reduce weight and drive vehicle motors faster. Because SiC transistors must be driven even faster than previous generations, latency becomes increasingly important. The XA Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC platform contains optimized Programmable Logic (PL) hardware pipelines to provide the lowest latency, paired with a processing system that runs software to control the hardware pipelines and adapts them to the workloads.
Electric Vehicle Management ECU
- Vehicle dynamics and predictive maintenance can be accelerated using the low latency AI processing capabilities in the XA Zynq-7000 and XA Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC platforms
- Flexible PL hardware pipelines can handle multiple protocols which must be processed simultaneously to handle complex vehicle communications and act in real time upon critical data
On-board Charger, Battery Management Systems and EV Motor Drive Control
