ON Semiconductor Joins CharIN Ecosystems in Development of Electric Mobility Standards

Company brings extensive automotive qualified power management
portfolio

PHOENIX–(BUSINESS WIRE)–ON Semiconductor (Nasdaq: ON),
driving energy efficient innovations, has joined the global Charging
Interface Initiative e.V. (CharIN) ecosystem with the goals of promoting
standards for charging systems in electric vehicles (EV), creating
requirements for the evolution of EV charging systems and developing a
certification system for manufacturers to implement charging systems
into their products.

ON Semiconductor has all the core technologies for vehicle
electrification, particularly the company’s extensive automotive
qualified power management portfolio including: IGBTs, high voltage gate
drivers, super junction rectifiers, high voltage MOSFETs, high voltage
DC-DC converters, as well as Wide Band Gap (WBG) devices in Silicon
Carbide (SiC) and Gallium Nitride (GaN) for next generation solutions.
Beyond silicon development, investments in advanced packaging include:
high power modules, single/dual sided cooled and dual sided direct
cooled packages. With sensing, communication and analog solutions, ON
Semiconductor has nearly all the components for current and future EV
charging infrastructure needs.

“At ON Semiconductor, our core business is Power Management, and we
support virtually every requirement with products that range from low
drop-out regulators, to switched mode power supplies to sophisticated
power management ICs (PMICs), positioning the company as an unrivaled
supplier of power solutions for the rapidly emerging EV and hybrid
electric vehicle market,” said Ali Husain, senior manager, power
conversion and motor control solutions at ON Semiconductor. “We are
seeing a ramp-up of our IGBT modules and FETs for electric vehicle
charger designs. We expect next generation semiconductor materials such
as silicon carbide and gallium nitride to drive improving power density
and efficiency. We look forward to bringing this expertise to the CharIN
ecosystem and collaborating with other industry leaders to create a
Combined Charging System and supporting the continued evolution of EV
charging infrastructure.”

As automotive manufacturers turn to next generation semiconductor
materials to improve power density and efficiency in hybrid and electric
vehicles, ON Semiconductor’s 1200V silicon carbide power devices and
650V gallium nitride power devices provide market leading solutions.
These solutions provide higher power efficiency and power density while
keeping weight to a minimum.

“We are excited to have ON Semiconductor collaboration in our efforts,”
said Claas Bracklo, chairman of CharIN e.V. “Their broad portfolio of
power, analog and communication silicon products, system design
expertise, and relationships with leading companies in both the
automotive and industrial markets complement and supplement the
already-strong CharIN roster of members and partners.”

About CharIN

The Charging Interface Initiative e.V. – abbreviated to CharIN e.V. – is
a registered association with more than 100 international members from
the whole automotive value chain. It is open to all interested parties.
Founded in the year 2015, the association has a head office in Berlin,
Germany and regional offices in Hong Kong, South Korea, India as well as
the US. The three primary aims are to roll out and establish the
Combined Charging System (CCS) as the global standard for charging
battery-powered electric vehicles of all kinds, to draw up requirements
for the evolution of charging-related standards and set up a conformance
verification system for use by manufacturers implementing the CCS in
their products as well as to promote the CCS standard worldwide.
