ST to supply SiC devices for e-cars from Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi
Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi intends to use the new SiC power technology to build more efficient and compact high-performance OBCs. These will help shorten charging times and increase range. ST will also provide design-in support to maximize the performance and reliability of the OBCs.
It is also intended that Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi will also source complementary components from ST, including standard silicon semiconductors. OBCs equipped with ST’s SiC technology are expected to enter series production in 2021.
ST did not provide any information on the expected quantities.
