Electric & Hybrid Vehicles (EV/HEV) Applications

High‑Power Density On‑Board Chargers

Compact, Efficient Charging for the Next Generation of EVs

High-power density on-board chargers (OBCs) enable faster EV charging in compact, lightweight designs that improve range and convenience. Using GaN and GaN BDS power devices with optimized thermal management, these systems deliver high efficiency, low losses, and smaller form factors. Intelligent control supports bidirectional charging and seamless grid interaction. Renesas power devices, MCUs/MPUs, and ready-made tools help accelerate development and simplify integration.
