Hyperdrives, a company dedicated to advancing electric motor technology, has chosen CISSOID‘s Silicon Carbide (SiC) Inverter Control Modules (ICMs) to power its revolutionary hollow conductor cooled electric motors. This collaboration aims to set new standards in power density, efficiency, and performance within the electric vehicle industry and beyond.
Hyperdrives’ innovative approach uses a direct cooling system that dissipates heat at its source by channelling cooling fluid through hollow conductor windings. This design enhances heat dissipation by a factor of ten, allowing for continuous currents three times higher than traditional systems and resulting in motors that are twice as power-dense.
The company’s automotive flagship product, Hyperdrives One, exemplifies this technology, offering exceptional peak and continuous power and torque density while reducing material costs by up to 40%.
To complement this cutting-edge motor design, Hyperdrives has integrated CISSOID’s 3-Phase 1200V/550A SiC Inverter Control Module. Combining high efficiency with reliable control, the CXT-ICM3SA series integrates SiC power modules, gate driver boards, and control boards featuring Intel Automotive’s T222 Adaptive Control Unit (ACU) with its accompanying control software.
The combination ensures rapid development and deployment of high-performance e-mobility drivetrains. Motor drive developers can also leverage CISSOID’s SiC Inverter Reference Designs to further accelerate their design cycle.
This strategic collaboration between Hyperdrives and CISSOID is poised to deliver electric drive systems that offer unparalleled efficiency, compactness, and performance, setting a new benchmark in the electric vehicle industry.
