As electric vehicles evolve toward 800 V architectures for faster charging and improved efficiency, the challenge of backward compatibility with 400 V infrastructure becomes increasingly urgent.

This webinar addresses the engineering and system-level hurdles of bridging 400 V and 800 V platforms, with a focus on innovative voltage conversion solutions. We’ll examine the trade-offs between booster-based and battery switchable architectures, evaluating each approach for safety, thermal performance, cost, and complexity.

Join us to learn how next-generation switchable solutions can enhance charging efficiency, reduce heat generation, and simplify system complexity, ensuring a seamless and cost-effective adoption of 800V. Attendees will leave with a clear understanding of how to engineer safe, scalable, and cost-effective EV charging systems that meet today’s demands and tomorrow’s expectations.
