AURIXTM TC4x PPU: Two Paths to OEM Profitability in the E Drivetrain

How can additional MCU compute power improve OEM profitability? This presentation identifies two value paths: removing cost from the electric drivetrain and enabling vehicle features for which customers are willing to pay. Using examples from traction inverter temperature estimation, integrated OBC and DC/DC control, and advanced battery modeling, the presentation demonstrates how the AURIX TC4x PPU can transform real-time parallel processing into practical product value. The resulting opportunities include reduced hardware complexity, optimized component margins, faster charging, improved battery utilization, and more differentiated electric vehicles.
