Solutions for electric drivetrain component optimization

The automotive industry is accelerating its transition to electric vehicles (EVs) in response to EU and other regulatory plans to ban internal combustion engines by 2035. These new EVs must meet consumer expectations of price, performance, weight, space, charging time and range. As such, component suppliers must embrace advanced technologies such as fast switching silicon carbide (SiC) semiconductors, higher voltage systems, wireless battery management systems and three phase inverters.

Even marginal improvements in electric drivetrain efficiency and performance can significantly enhance overall vehicle operation. Therefore, it is essential for OEMs and their suppliers to fully characterize each drivetrain component and identify areas for optimization.

Assessing the energy efficiency of the entire drivetrain requires precise and detailed measurements. Rohde & Schwarz offers a comprehensive range of test solutions to help you develop, debug and validate electric drivetrain components - both in the lab and on the production line. With our expertise, you can ensure that your components meet the highest standards of performance and efficiency.
