Discover the reference design and products for EV Charging Station from ST

The number of full electric vehicles (EVs) is rapidly growing and, as a result, the charging infrastructure is also expanding, including DC fast charging stations, which have the attractive capability of providing the vehicle with a 100km driving range in just 10-12 minutes.  Power modules range from 15kW to 60kW connected in parallel to build charging pile up to 350kW. 

In this webinar, ST experts will introduce the 2 reference designs:

• STDES-VIENNARECT - 15 kW, three-phase Vienna rectifier with low cost mixed-signal control for power factor correction; and the 
• STDES-PFCBIDIR - 15 kW, three-phase, three-level Active Front End (AFE) bidirectional converter for industrial and electric vehicle DC fast charging applications.

Also you will learn more on ST's wide range of power discretes including silicon-carbide (SiC) and silicon power MOSFETs and diodes, isolated gate drivers as well as high-performance STM32 microcontrollers to help develop high-efficiency, high-power density DC charging stations.

Agenda:

• Brief introduction to charging stations
• ST STDES-VIENNARECT 15kW Three Phase Vienna Rectifier reference design
  • PFC topology 
  • Operation principle
