Enhance comfort and efficiency with compact, quiet thermal management solutions using intelligent motor control
Our C2000 and Arm® Cortex® microcontrollers enable efficient, quiet, and scalable thermal management for automotive systems. In hybrid EVs (HEVs) and EVs, thermal-management systems are second only to powertrain systems in power consumption. Improving system-level efficiency for heating and cooling systems thus has a direct impact on driving range. Our technology and expertise help optimize energy-conversion efficiency and reduce power losses while improving the overall driving experience. Together, these microcontroller families enable compact, real-time designs.
