EV Chargers - Unleash Your Expertise With Our Supercharge Solutions

An electric vehicle (EV) charging station provides electric cars with the necessary power

Any EV charging station must have an intelligent controller and a power management unit as its two essential parts. The intelligent control unit administers security, services, and remote server connectivity, and the power management unit handles the power conversion, distribution and energy measurement.

EV charging stations must be efficient, accurate, connected, and secure. Farnell Electronics satisfies these prerequisites with accurate power metering, device control, and data security. Our wide assortment of EV solutions enables an accelerated time-to-market with reduced complexity and lower expense, bolstered by product longevity program, ensuring extended product lifecycles.

About Working Principles, Connector And Charger Types

Working Principle

Electric Grid

➤ Power source for the charging system

Power Conversion

➤ Rectifiers: Convert AC power from the grid to DC power

➤ Inverters: Convert DC power from the charging system to AC power (for vehicle-to-grid capabilities)

➤ Transformers: Regulate and transform voltage levels

Charging Control

➤ Charging controllers: Manage the charging process, monitor battery status, and handle communication protocols

➤ Power management systems: Optimize power distribution, load balancing, and charging prioritization

Communication

➤ Charge point controllers: Control and monitor the charging process at the charging station

➤ Communication protocols: Enable data exchange and control functionalities between the charging station and the electric vehicle

Battery Management

➤ Battery monitoring unit: Monitors battery voltage, current, temperature, and state of charge

➤ Cell balancing circuit: Balances the charge levels among individual battery cells

➤ Safety circuits: Protect against overcharging, overheating, and short circuits

➤ Communication module: Facilitates bidirectional communication between the charging system and the vehicle

Energy Meter

➤ Energy meters: Measure the energy consumed during the charging process

➤ Current sensors: Detect and measure the current flowing to the electric vehicle

➤ Voltage sensors: Measure the voltage supplied to the electric vehicle

➤ Data communication interfaces: Enable data exchange between the energy meter and the charging infrastructure

Electric Vehicle

➤ Represents the electric vehicle that receives power from the charging system and stores it in its battery for use
