Testing, learning, improving: SCAPE converter validation moves towards motor and battery environments The purpose of validation is not simply to produce a final “pass” result. In a research prototype, the most valuable tests [...]

Integration in progress: SCAPE’s IIC and BIC prototypes move from building blocks to complete hardware SCAPE’s architecture is moving into the integration stage where switching cells, converter legs, cooling hardware, control electronics and [...]

Digital twins for more robust converter health monitoring How can an electric-vehicle power converter detect that one of its power switches is beginning to age before the degradation becomes a failure? SCAPE’s WP5 [...]

From embedded SiC devices to tested hardware: SCAPE advances switching-cell manufacturing and cooling The chip-embedded high-voltage switching cell is one of SCAPE’s most distinctive hardware developments. By integrating SiC power devices directly into [...]

SCAPE publishes its modular and scalable design guidelines SCAPE’s modular and scalable power-conversion architecture has reached an important milestone with the submission its Guidelines for the design of modular and scalable EV powertrain [...]
