TDK launches standardized and modular DC link capacitor for powertrain inverters
TDK introduces the xEVCap, a standardized and modular DC link capacitor design for powertrain inverters in passenger cars, commercial and off-highway vehicles, and machinery tools. Typically, such capacitor designs are fully customized, making the development time-consuming and practical only in large production volumes. In addition, if the customer requirements change during the project, this can further increase the time required for capacitor development and thus delay the overall project.
However, with the scalable and modular xEVCap, TDK helps inverter designers meet varying capacitance and current requirements at lower volumes while saving valuable time. This approach also reduces costs by utilizing standardized capacitor modules, which minimizes the variety of components that need to be stocked. To meet different capacitance and current requirements, multiple xEVCaps can be easily connected in parallel. The complete capacitance range complies with the automotive standards AEC-Q200 rev. E and IEC TS 63337:2024. The xEVCap is available in two connection styles: the B25654A*001 has lead wires for soldering to busbars or PCBs, while the B25654A*002 has flat terminals for welding or screwing to busbars. Each variant is available in multiple different mechanical versions and ...
