Mouser Electronics, Inc. has announced a new eBook in collaboration with Amphenol, presenting an in-depth look at connection and sensor technology enabling e-mobility. In '9 Experts Discuss the Role of Connectivity in e-Mobility', Amphenol and the transportation industry specialists offer insights into technologies and strategies needed to support the unique demands of today's EVs, HEVs and eVTOL aircraft.
The chapters of the eBook delve into the challenges and advantages of different types of electrical systems and battery storage. Both functional and environmental safety are discussed in the eBook, as is V2X technology. V2X is a communication framework that enables vehicles to interact with various elements within their environment, including other vehicles (V2V), infrastructure (V2I), pedestrians (V2P), and networks (V2N). This comprehensive communication framework improves safety, efficiency, and convenience by enabling real-time information exchange.
The eBook also highlights relevant products from Amphenol, including sensors, connectors and cable assemblies suitable for EV, HEV, and eVTOL applications.
The Amphenol Aerospace high-voltage HV38999 series circular connectors are created for next-generation aircraft power requirements. Through insert optimisations, these speciality connectors can safely carry high voltages and large currents at high altitudes while remaining partially discharge-free to extend connector life. These connectors use the last mate, first break sequence, and accommodate standard 38999 accessories.
The SurLok Plus is a high-performance compression lug solution engineered by Amphenol Industrial, developed to meet the requirements of high-voltage power applications across industries like commercial EVs, energy storage, and industrial equipment. Delivering easy field installation, superior safety features, and robust performance, the IP67-rated SurLok Plus series supplies reliable power distribution without the need for special torque tools.
Amphenol Industrial's ePower-Lite plastic power connectors are designed to be employed in the commercial HEV and heavy equipment markets. The two-pole, three-pole and four-pole connectors include patented RADSOK technology, which provides high amperage, low T-rise and voltage drop, and low resistance.
The FAKRA to AMC cable assembly from Amphenol RF combines the automotive industry standard FAKRA connector with the micro-miniature AMC connector on an ultra-flexible 1.13mm or 1.37mm coax cable. This combination permits easy connection and disconnect and is excellent for automotive and IoT applications requiring compact infrastructure.
Amphenol Piher's HCSP-1BS open loop current sensors are based on Hall-effect and TMR technologies suited for monitoring and managing performance and safety in battery systems for applications in the automotive and transportation industries.
