Watch our webinar to discover what silicon-controlled rectifiers (SCR) can do for EV charging applications.

Designed to meet the higher demands of automotive electrification, SCRs limit inrush current when the car is plugged to the charger station. Thanks to a lower voltage drop, SCRs also offer a highly efficient solution for bidirectional chargers when the EV battery is used to supply AC loads connected to the car.

In this webinar, you will understand the benefits of using SCRs in EV charging topologies and how easily they can be controlled. This webinar is intended specifically for those working on EV charger front end designs (rectifiers for power factor correction circuits) for on-board chargers or charging stations.

Designed for reliable, highly efficient EV charging applications, ST's portfolio of automotive SCRs, or thyristors, are scalable from 30 to 130 A in discrete surface-mount packages to top-cooled power modules for power ranging from 3 to 50 kW.

Whether you are new to the industry or have several years of experience, if you need to understand what SCRs can do for EV charging, this webinar is made for you.
