Applications

Anywhere high current is hard.

The common thread is always the same: a limited volume, demanding conditions and a load with no tolerance for a sagging rail. Below is exactly what each application asks of the power stage.

Electric vehicles

Electric race cars and light drive platforms. High current on launch, low loss for the rest of the race.

Boards that fit

What this application asks for

  • A driver that does not fold current back at launch
  • Buffer capacitance that engages before the battery rail sags
  • The safety lines scrutineering asks for — deadman, main contactor
  • CAN for telemetry

Unmanned aerial vehicles

Feeding the flight controller and the motor group safely from one battery, on multicopter and fixed-wing platforms.

Boards that fit

What this application asks for

  • Low-resistance distribution that does not blow the weight budget
  • A clean supply that keeps the avionics rail away from motor noise
  • Connectors and mounting that do not work loose under vibration

Underwater systems

A power stage that fits inside a sealed hull and can still get its heat out, for ROVs and autonomous underwater vehicles.

Boards that fit

What this application asks for

  • Efficient power paths that do not heat a closed volume
  • An output structure that feeds several thrusters evenly
  • CAN for talking to the operator on the surface

Robotics and autonomous platforms

Drive and distribution for autonomous ground vehicles, mobile robots and remotely operated platforms.

Boards that fit

What this application asks for

  • A Hall sensor interface for position feedback
  • Forward / reverse direction control
  • Talking to the high-level controller over CAN
  • A safety input that joins the emergency stop chain

Industrial drives and test benches

Motor characterisation, dynamometers and continuously running drive applications.

Boards that fit

What this application asks for

  • Stable operation for repeatable measurement
  • An NTC input that watches motor temperature
  • A circuit that drives the main contactor from the board

R&D and university laboratories

Saving time on prototype-stage projects with a ready, documented power stage.

Boards that fit

What this application asks for

  • Domestic sourcing that does not wait out long lead times
  • Documentation that spells the connections out
  • A board that can be adapted to what the project needs
