Mouser has released a new eBook in collaboration with TE Connectivity, exploring EVs and the swiftly evolving landscape of connected transportation. This new eBook highlights emerging engineering topics, including V2X ecosystems, fleet telematics with 5G, the future of high-powered EV charging and other design trends supplying insights into the EV and connected transportation eMobility revolution.
In 'EV And Connected Transportation', the companies explore the evolution of EVs from transportation modes to dynamic data hubs, as the rise of fleet telematics and the integration of 5G turn vehicles into roaming data centres. This eBook takes a deep dive into the emerging V2X communication standards for the next generation of EVs, providing cloud-based and 5G systems to help vehicles gather, process, and transmit more information, optimising everything from navigation to maintenance. Topics include the beginning of automotive single-pair Ethernet, which needs advanced sensing and connectivity, and highlight TE Connectivity's offerings for even faster and more secure in-vehicle data handling for rapid remote updates, communication between vehicles and infrastructure, sophisticated driver assist systems, and ultimately, complete vehicle autonomy.
The ebook features the latest TE Connectivity products available, including Charging Inlets for commercial and industrial vehicles, facilitating safe, fast, and secure charging of up to 10,000 mating cycles while charging at 250VAC (at 32A) and 1000VDC (at 200A), and are ideal for use with heavy and medium-duty trucks, buses, two-wheelers, agriculture, construction, and recreational vehicles. 5G Phantom no ground plane needed antennas deliver global cellular coverage without requiring a fixed ground plane, even for regions where the lower 600MHz band is necessary. These antennas supply consistent performance and can cover either 617MHz to 7125MHz or 698MHz to 7125MHz frequency bands in a ground plane-independent format. They suit IoT, freight and transportation environments, and public safety applications.
Also available are PowerTube connectors are developed for high-power applications in hybrid and electric industrial and commercial vehicles. The ECPx50B high voltage contactors are constructed for handling large electrical loads, up to 580A continuous current, depending on wire size and temperature, and offer 1000V switching voltage of up to 1500VDC with a constant carry current of up to 500A. These contactors are designed for control in high-voltage environments such as battery energy storage systems, solar inverters, and EV charging applications.
