Bidirectional V2G and V2X charger power electronics

V2G and V2X bidirectional charging

Vehicle-to-grid (V2G) and vehicle-to-everything (V2X) charging lets an electric vehicle send energy back to the grid, a building or another load. The charger must convert power in both directions with high efficiency, grid-quality current and safe control. Semtronics designs bidirectional charging power electronics, both wired and wireless.

Our V2X work

  • 11 kW / 22 kW three-phase bidirectional V2X on-board charger for 400 V and 800 V batteries
  • 11 kW wireless power transfer V2X prototype to SAE J2954, with a 22 kW system in development
  • On-board and off-board V2G chargers for passenger and commercial vehicles

Design capability

  • Bidirectional three-phase PFC / active rectifier stages
  • Bidirectional isolated DC-DC stages (dual active bridge, CLLC)
  • Grid-tie control, low THD and protection
  • SiC devices for high efficiency and power density
  • Embedded control and vehicle communication
