Automotive Alternator
Automotive alternator is commonly placed in front of an internal combustion engine, driven by belt to provide electrical source for the car. The AC current generated by the alternator needed to be regulated into DC current via the diodes located in the rectifier bridge, then it can be charged into the main battery and distributed to various electrical applications from audio, entertainment systems, dash displays, lights and other controllers.
Electric Vehicle / Electric mobility platforms
Electric vehicle/electric mobility platforms are the future trend of transportation, and a of power semiconductors will be widely applied into major components such as: motor inverter has to transform the DC current originated from the battery into AC current to drive the traction motor.
Industrial Applications
Photovoltaic inverter is responsible of turning DC current collected from the solar panels into AC current for household usage.
