Powerline communication for electric mobility: in-tech smart charging GmbH, a 100% subsidiary of in-tech GmbH, launches a new charge controller: Charge Module S
is specially designed for in-vehicle use and is based on a slim and
powerful embedded architecture. Its compact size and
automotive-compatible hardware make the module ideal for in-vehicle use.
Car manufacturers can integrate the module into their own charging
hardware to create a powerful solution optimized for automotive
applications.
in-tech smart charging specializes in products
for powerline communication - from individual communication modules to
ready-to-use systems. The powerline products are used in electric
vehicles and charging stations, for building automation and in a variety
of other applications.
Ideal for automotive control units and charging infrastructure
The
new Charge Module S can be integrated directly into the vehicle control
unit (VCU) of the electric vehicle to control the charging process. It
is connected to the vehicle control unit via SPI or CAN. In addition,
Charge Module S can also be used in charging stations, for example, if
space is limited. The module can also be used on both sides by vehicle
manufacturers who wish to offer their own charging infrastructure.
Support of all important standards
Just
like the other products from in-tech smart charging, Charge Module S
supports all common features such as Plug and Charge or bidirectional
charging. With the standards ISO15118/DIN70121 for DC charging and
IEC61851 and ISO15118 for AC applications the module meets all current
standards. "Charge Module S uses our V2G software stack on an embedded
platform and is optimally suited for automotive applications thanks to
its small footprint", explains Thomas Wagner, Managing Director of
in-tech smart charging GmbH.
Availability and outlook for new charging controller
Charge Module S is now available for pre-order as a developer sample and
will be available in Q4. For customers looking for a complete solution,
in-tech smart charging will also be launching a ready-to-use charge
controller for electric vehicles at the end of the year.
