onsemi and BorgWarner Expand Strategic Collaboration for Silicon Carbide Worth Over $1 Billion in Lifetime Value

2023年7月19日 --智能电源和智能感知技术的领先企业安森美(onsemi，美国纳斯达克股票代码：ON)与提供创新可持续的车行方案的全球领先供应商博格华纳(BorgWarner，纽约证交所股票代码：BWA)，扩大碳化硅（SiC）方面的战略合作，协议总价值超10亿美元。博格华纳计划将安森美的EliteSiC 1200 V和750 V功率器件集成到其VIPER功率模块中。长期以来，双方已在广泛的产品领域开展战略合作，其中即包括EliteSiC器件。

安森美提供高性能的 EliteSiC 技术，同时保持电动汽车主驱市场所需的高标准品质、高可靠性及供应稳定性。安森美拥有几十年的功率半导体产品设计、开发和制造经验，且已获大批量汽车应用验证。

博格华纳公司副总裁，动力驱动系统总裁兼总经理Stefan Demmerle说：“首要的是，安森美持续进行战略投资，在其整个端到端供应链中加速提升SiC产能，这让我们有信心能满足市场现在和未来对我们解决方案不断增长的需求。”

博格华纳的碳化硅主驱逆变器与其它同类方案相比，具有更高的能效、更好的冷却性能、更快的充电速度和更紧凑小巧的封装。博格华纳在其解决方案中采用EliteSiC技术，将得益于更高的功率密度和能效，从而增加电动汽车的续航里程并提高整体性能。

安森美电源方案事业群执行副总裁兼总经理Simon Keeton说：“在主驱逆变器中集成EliteSiC技术，可以提高每加仑汽油的等效里程数（MPGe），这有助于缓解续航里程焦虑--这是电动汽车被更广泛采用的主要障碍之一。安森美可提供从芯片到系统级的支持，过往执行记录良好，能更快为博格华纳提供领先业界的基于SiC的解决方案，以配合其产品上市需求。”
