The next generation of Applied EV’s modular Blanc autonomous electric vehicles will feature CISSOID inverter control modules.

Software-defined autonomous vehicle control system technology provider Applied EV recently selected CISSOID's new CXT-ICM3SA series of silicon carbide (SiC) inverter control modules (ICMs) to drive their latest generation of autonomous vehicle electric motors.

Semiconductor manufacturer CISSOID said it is dedicated to serving the electric mobility (e-mobility) market. The company’s software-powered SiC ICMs are augmented with onboard programmable hardware, which can accelerate the response time to critical events, reduce load on processor cores, and enhance functional safety.

"We are excited to embark on this collaborative journey with Applied EV to drive innovation in e-mobility,” said Dave Hutton, CISSOID CEO. “By combining our expertise in electric motor design with Applied EV’s proficiency in software and vehicle integration, the aim is to deliver a game-changing electric motor drive platform for the future of mobility together."

Module to integrate with centralized control system, improve safety

The ICM will be integrated into Applied EV’s Digital Backbone, a centralized control system combining software and hardware.

“Both Applied EV and CISSOID recognize functional safety is critical in the development and deployment of autonomous vehicles,” said Julian Broadbent, Applied EV CEO. “The partnership integrates CISSOID’s ICMs into our Digital Backbone, allowing for a faster development cycle, giving our customer the safest vehicle in the shortest time possible.”

The companies said their collaboration underscores a shared commitment to driving positive change in the automotive industry and contributing to a more sustainable future for transportation globally.
