Market Share of Automotive Dc-Dc Converter Industry
The market is moderately consolidated owing to several active vendors competing for an enhanced market share based on product innovation. The vendors with sales directed prominently to mature markets are required to effectively innovate their product offerings to ensure low environmental impact and well-designed digital features.
In March 2021, Infineon Technologies AG (Infineon) announced that it had launched the 650 V CoolSiC Hybrid Discrete for automotive. The device contains a 50 A TRENCHSTOP 5 fast-switching IGBT and a CoolSiC Schottky diode, enabling a cost-efficient performance boost and high reliability. It makes the device ideal for fast-switching automotive applications such as onboard chargers (OBC), power factor correction (PFC), DC-DC, and DC-AC converters.
In February 2021, Vitesco Technologies announced a new DC/DC converter, the heating discs of the electrically heated EMICAT catalyst can now also be supplied with electricity in high-voltage vehicles. The innovative e-catalyst enables the lowest emissions in real operation, which is becoming increasingly important considering forthcoming regulations such as Euro 7. The newly-developed DC/DC converter now generates the low voltage and power for the heating disc from the high voltage of the drive system.
Besides, these vendors' business operation models and product concepts align with the specific requirements of emerging economies to encourage sustainability in high-growth, low-cost markets.
