A high efficiency powertrain control application boosting the range of
EVs and HEVs

SOPHIA ANTIPOLIS, France–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Silicon
Mobility, the technology player powering control solutions for a
cleaner, safer and smarter mobility, announced today the availability of
OLEA® APP INVERTER HE, a high efficiency inverter and electric motor
control application. The new inverter is optimized for the OLEA® FPCU
which increases range of hybrid and electric vehicles up to 20% with the
same battery capacity.

The OLEA® APP INVERTER HE is the first addition to the OLEA® APP High
Efficiency application software products portfolio. The portfolio
products are specifically designed to be executed on the OLEA® FPCU
semiconductor platform from Silicon Mobility. OLEA® APP INVERTER HE
integrates unique adaptive control algorithms which apply the most
suitable control strategy upon requested power, motor angle, and speed.
OLEA® APP INVERTER HE controls the inverter and e-Motor cutting energy
losses into the power switches and into the electric motor while
extending the operating range of the e-Motor. Simulations on a WLTP
(Worldwide harmonized Light vehicles Test Procedures) cycle demonstrate
an energy gain of 20% when compared to incumbent multi-core
microcontroller-based applications.

“Electric vehicles are the future but the range anxiety is still highly
prevalent in comparison to fuel cars. An immediate and effective way to
increase electric vehicles range is to use a better and smarter solution
to control the electric powertrain. This is exactly what we offer with
OLEA®APP INVERTER HE running on OLEA® FPCU,” said Bruno Paucard, CEO of
Silicon Mobility. “Our technology is applicable for every electric and
hybrid vehicle. With OLEA®APP INVERTER HE, our customers will achieve
their goal to build the most energy efficient vehicle.”

The OLEA® APP INVERTER HE comes as an AUTOSAR 4.3 software package
including the inverter Application Software components (ASW) and the
inverter Complex Device Drivers (CDD). The OLEA® APP INVERTER HE offers
a high level of adaptability to match a wide range of inverter and
electric motor topologies.

Silicon Mobility will be exhibiting OLEA® APP INVERTER HE and OLEA® FPCU
at the Electric
& Hybrid Vehicle Technology Expo in Stuttgart from May 7^th
to May 9^th, 2019. More information about OLEA® APP INVERTER
HE and OLEA® FPCU are available on the company’s website: www.silicon-mobility.com.
